Succinct method for allocation of network losses

A succinct method for allocation of network losses is proposed. It takes into consideration the influence of both active and reactive power injected into grids from which network losses and its allocation factors due to each user of the network can be computed in an easy to understand manner. Only one assumption, which is widely accepted in the power industry, is used in the proposed method. Case studies show that the allocation rule can easily be used to allocate network losses to all users of the network. The rule meets criteria for being an acceptable allocation rule for the power supply industry
