We will calculate Kilowatts (KW), Kilovars (KVAR), Power Factor (PF), and voltage drops at various locations in the power system. We will determine how the system will operate in normal and emergency conditions. We will also check for the application of power factor correction capacitors.

A Load Flow study will:

• Reduce your electric bill by determining the location and size of power factor correction capacitors

• Aid in future planning and present day operation by demonstrating how the electrical system will perform during normal and emergency operating conditions

• Determine the proper transformer tap settings so that the correct voltage will be present at motors and other loads during full load and no load conditions

• Identify under-utilized equipment to which will allow for future load growth

• Identify overloaded equipment

• Increase the distribution system operating efficiency and determine the most optimum operating configuration
