Abstract

This paper presents a technique to development load control and management system in order to limits a maximum load demand and saves electric energy consumption. The computer programming proper load forecasting algorithm associated with programmable logic control and digital power meter through inform of multidrop network RS 485 over the twisted pair, over all are contained in this system. The digital power meter can measure a load data such as V, I, pf, P, Q, kWh, kVarh, etc., to be collected in statistics data convey to data base system on microcomputer and then analyzed a moving linear regression of load to forecast load demand Eventually, the result by forecasting are used for compost of load management and shedding for demand monitoring, Cycling on/off load control, Timer control, and Direct control. In this case can effectively reduce the electric energy consumption cost for 10% ...
