Planificación del Sistema de Distribución del Sector Mirador en Quito

Abstract

Electric demand of distribution systems in Quito has being increasing along the time. The main reason is the construction of offices, apartments and multi-storey buildings, as it can be compared in another zones of the city, like center-north regions. In these places, the electric demand is reaching saturation levels and in some, they have accomplished it. The focus of the present study is the analysis of the demand of Mirador Sector, which is located in the south of the city of Quito. It is required to consider the increase of the residential demand due to the growing number of costumers and the introduction of induction cooking. The examination of the growth of the electric demand and its projection, allows to determine if it is necessary the implementation of a new electric substation. This substation will cover the increasing demand, and will stop the saturation process of the region covered.
