Abstract :
A distribution network has been analyzed by using the Simpow simulation software. Some distribution lines and distribution transformer phases were found to be overloaded and unsymmetrical. The paper suggests ways of improving the network by replacing overloaded transformers and distribution lines. Lastly the paper recommends that the loads should be redistributed equally to each phase to alleviate the unsymmetrical problems
