In 2018 the Swedish government introduced a new legislation for the electricity meters installed in the low voltage networks. The legislation includes, among other things, that the electricity meters should be able to measure the current and voltage per phase with a time resolution of one hour or 15 minutes. To meet the new requirements Falu Energi & Vatten have started a rollout of new electricity meters in their low voltage networks. In addition to this, electricity meters have also been installed in a few secondary substations in Falun. The overall purpose of this project was to investigate what the data from the new electricity meters can be used for and what the benefits are with having metering equipment in secondary substations. Data from secondary substations can be useful when dimensioning the grid or when analysing power losses. During the project, data was collected from one secondary substation and the underlying low voltage network. The parameters current and voltage were measured per phase with a time interval of 15 minutes. The data was used in three different investigations. The results from two of them indicated that the network information system that Falu Energi & Vatten uses for dimensioning tends to overestimate the power consumption and the voltage drop between the secondary substation and the low voltage customers. In the last investigation a method for localising non-technical power losses was evaluated. The result indicated that the method was not suitable for the purpose.
