System for the measurement and detection of electric energy losses (SIM-IV); Sistema de medicion y deteccion de perdidas de energia electrica (SIM-IV)

Abstract

The electric utility companies worldwide suffer, in greater or lesser degree, electrical energy losses. A great percentage of these losses is mostly due to illegal appropriations of energy. The consumers, by means of illicit practices such as clandestine connections and alteration of the operation of electricity meters, carry out the energy robbery. In order to try to alleviate the problematic of electric energy losses, in their majority by illicit, the electric utility companies have implemented one or more actions. Among the most important are: Visual inspection of the metering facilities. Its purpose is to verify the condition of the traditional protections of the metering installations, such as the seals and safety rings. Detection Equipment: These are recorders of energy consumption and of faults in conductors and are used to detect illicit connections and deviations in the consumption patterns and to the electrical energy connection or to the secondary distribution network. Statistical analysis of consumption: Many electric facility companies have adapted their processing consumption reading systems to detect deviations in the of consumption patterns of their clients. This could correspond to abnormal situations. Since this country is not extraneous to the problematic of energy losses, in the Instituto de Investigaciones Electricas  More>>

This could correspond to abnormal situations. Since this country is not extraneous to the problematic of energy losses, in the Instituto de Investigaciones Electricas it was developed a System of Measurement and Detection of Losses of Electrical Energy (SIM-IV) as a result of the knowledge of the problematic obtained from the projects in the metering area and of the interaction through work meetings with personnel of the Comision Federal de Electricidad and of Luz y Fuerza del Centro (LyFC), in which concepts of advanced technology were applied for the measurement of electrical variables. The SIM-IV is a system oriented to the metering of consumption and the detection of robberies of electrical energy caused by clandestine connections and non-allowed interventions to the energy meters. Since this is a system of the non-invasive type, it does not interfere with the operation of the electrical circuits. [Spanish] Las companias de electricidad de todo el mundo sufren, en mayor o menor grado, de perdidas de energia electrica. Un gran porcentaje de estas perdidas se debe, principalmente, a apropiaciones indebidas de energia. Los consumidores, mediante practicas ilicitas como tomas clandestinas y alteracion del funcionamiento de los medidores, llevan a cabo el robo de energia. Para tratar de aliviar la problematica de perdidas de energia electrica, en su mayoria por ilicitos, las companias de electricidad han implementado una o mas acciones. Entre las mas importantes estan: Inspeccion visual de las instalaciones de medicion. Su proposito es verificar el estado de las protecciones tradicionales del medidor, como son sellos y anillos de seguridad. Equipos de deteccion. Son registradores de consumo de energia y de fallas en conductores, se utilizan para detectar desviaciones en los patrones de consumo y derivaciones o conexiones ilicitas a la acometida de energia electrica o a la red secundaria de distribucion. Analisis estadistico de consumos. Muchas companias de electricidad han adaptado sus sistemas de procesamiento de lecturas de consumos para detectar desviaciones en los patrones de consumo de los clientes. Esto pudiera corresponder a situaciones anormales. Dado que este pais no es ajeno a la problematica de perdidas de energia, en el Instituto de Investigaciones Electricas se desarrollo un Sistema de Medicion y Deteccion de Perdidas de Energia Electrica (SIM-IV) como resultado del conocimiento de la problematica obtenido de los proyectos en el area de medicion y de la interaccion a traves de reuniones de trabajo con personal de la Comision Federal de Electricidad (CFE) y de Luz y Fuerza del Centro (LyFC), en el que se aplicaron conceptos y tecnologia avanzada de medicion de variables electricas. El SIM-IV es un sistema orientado a la medicion de consumos y la deteccion de robos de energia electrica ocasionados por tomas clandestinas e intervenciones no permitidas de los medidores de energia. Puesto que se trata de un sistema del tipo no-invasivo, no interfiere con el funcionamiento normal de los circuitos electricos.}
