In these days load on the feeders is varying continuously and some electrical equipments like transformer motors and home equipment are working at low power factors. Power supply authorities have to generate much more current to face the problem. In this system the high current level requires to be reduced and efforts should be made to make the system more energy handling with minimum cost involved. The technique such as improving power factor, voltage level, conductor size and substituting covered cables with bare conductor should be included.
The main objective of this research is to provide guidelines for distribution authorities to show that by reducing the energy losses of distribution system, shifting of the load from overloaded feeder to lightly loaded feeder and decreasing the length of feeder. It helps in creating a new methodology. In the system, capacitor bank is proposing for improving the power factor. This helps in energy loss reduction by improving the voltage stability as well as reforming the energy handling capacity of the system at minimum cost.
