  1. Distribution Feeder Voltage Regulation and Control W. H. Kersting Milsoft Utility Solutions

  2. Purpose of This Paper • Present ANSI Voltage Standards • Present Step Voltage Regulator • What it is • Control Settings • Model • IEEE 13 Node Test Feeder • Steps in regulating voltage on the test feeder

  3. The ANSI Voltage Standards • Range A • Nominal Utilization Voltage = 115 volts • Maximum Utilization Voltage = 126 volts • Minimum Service Voltage = 114 volts • Minimum Utilization Voltage = 110 volts • Range B • Nominal Utilization Voltage = 115 volts • Maximum Utilization Voltage = 127 volts • Minimum Service Voltage = 110 volts • Minimum Utilization Voltage = 107 volts

  4. ANSI Range A Critical Voltages

  5. Voltage Drop Assumptions • 1 Volt drop on the service drop • 2 Volt drop on the secondary • 3 Volt drop through the transformer • Minimum Voltage at the Transformer Primary Terminals will be 120 volts

  6. Voltage Profiles

  7. Step Voltage Regulator

  8. Type B Step Voltage Regulator

  9. The Step-Voltage Regulator Model

  10. Three Phase Voltage Regulator Model

  11. Model Matrix

  12. Compensator Circuit

  13. Control Panel

  14. Control Circuit

  15. Regulator Control Settings • Voltage Level – voltage to hold at the regulation point • R and X setting (volts) – Equivalent impedance from the regulator to the regulation point • Time Delay – time after a tap change required before the tap is changed • Bandwidth – allowed deviation from the set voltage level

  16. Compensator Impedance

  17. Equivalent Line Impedance

  18. Bandwidth

  19. IEEE 13 Node Test Feeder(Modified)

  20. Modifications • Line 4-12 changed to phases B-C • Transformer 6-7 changed to Ungrounded Wye – Delta • Load at Node 7 converted to Delta-PQ • Load at Node 8 converted to Delta-PQ • Load at Node 14 changed to phase B with constant Z load • Load added at Node 5: 300 + j145.3 kVA

  21. Step 1 • Select regulation point to be Node 4 • Run power-flow with source set to 126 volts • Display Voltage Profile • Compute compensator impedance

  22. Step 1 Voltage Profile

  23. Voltages and Currents from Power-Flow Run

  24. Compensator R and X Settting

  25. Full Load with Regs, no Caps

  26. Observations • Regulator taps • Phase a: 11 • Phase b: 12 • Phase c: 15 • Concern about high voltage at Node 2 • Need to add shunt capacitors

  27. Shunt Capacitors • Source reactive power • Phase A: 765 kvar • Phase B: 809 kvar • Phase C; 1105 kvar • Install shunt capacitors • Node 3: 100 kvar per phases a,b,c • Node 4: 600 kvar per phases a,b,c • Node 13: 150 kvar on phase c

  28. Full Load with Regs and Caps

  29. Observations • Regulator taps • Phase a: 5 • Phase b: 6 • Phase c: 7 • Notice good voltage balance • All voltages between 120 and 122 volts at Node 4

  30. 50% Load with all Capacitors

  31. 50% Load with 900 kvar at Node 4 switched off

  32. 10% Load Growth with original caps

  33. 10% Load Growth100 kvar per phase added at node 4
