Abstract.
The deregulation of the electric energy market and the difficulties related to distribution network such as the congestion, the increasing growth of the installed power density in urban zones, the growth of the delivery-provided energy and the spectacular increase that the peak power experiences are new problems to be faced by the utility engineers. So, the knowledge of the load behaviour is becoming more and more important in the planning and operation of the electric energy distribution network. In this paper, the influence of domestic air conditioning equipment, one of the most energy consuming domestic loads in Spain, in the electrical energy distribution network is addressed. The research is focused on analysis of the voltage supply effects on the operation of home air condition appliances, from a theoretical point of view. Some load models of the domestic air conditioning appliances as electrical load are considered.
system transient stability, include the effect of the frequency variations [2]. Nowadays, the research community is showing a renewed interest for the load modelling for the electrical energy distribution network analysis. The basis of this renewed interest is now different (although the economic impact is the root again). The deregulation of the electric energy market and the difficulties related to the distribution network congestion, the increasing growth of the installed power density in urban zones, the growth of the delivery-provided energy
