Abstract
Overloading is a major problem as there is no any system to ensure the consumer power usage. For example, weather conditions can change the consumer usage and extreme weather conditions can cause overloading. So when there is no way to determine consumer usage, the one alternative is load balancing. Load balancing is very important feature that keeps the system safe from overloading. When one area is overloaded, the loads can be transferred to the less loaded areas using switches. And load balancing provides how much load has to be transferred to maintain system within limits. The other way is to control using automatic generation control (AGC). Load balancing is implemented at the substation side at the power distribution level, while AGC is implemented at power station side at power generation level. Because implementation of AGC is very costly, load balancing provides good alternative. In this project, the design and implementation of Power Load Balancing will be done using Fuzzy logic toolbox of MATLAB. Fuzzy logic provides easy way using graphical user interface to implement fuzzy system. A set of rules can determine the fuzzy system. My focus in this project is on understanding the background of power system and importance of load balancing in power system. The designing part will give the hands-on experience on MATLAB fuzzy logic toolbox.
