ET-92-19  aA thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Engineering  aThesis (M.Eng.) - Asian Institute of Technology  aThis thesis has been written to improve the electricity situation in  general as well as the electri city distribution system in particular, in Pakistan.  Jn the wake of the com1try's serious short.ages of electric:ity, this thesis points  to the .importance of control.ling distribution losses, which consist of technical  and non - t(H:hnical losses. Th ese losses .l ead to a reduc tion of electr.ic:H.y supply  which mal<es load sh e ddi.ng quite hi gh.  In order t o reduce technical lossc-:!s , a r ehabilitation approach is  established in this stu dy. This rehabilitation approach shows how much  conservation is possH>.l e by considering fo-ur· options. 'J'l1ese in clu de:  Repladng a highly loaded, low capacity transformer by larger one,  Replacing t he transformer a nd 1·econcluctoring,  Shifting t he transformer to its optimum posit.ion a nd  Splitting the existing circuit into two seperate circuits.  The main purpose of rehabilitation of the existing circuit ls to a chieve  WAPDA's prescribed standard for transfom1er loading and maxhnum voltage drop.  Als o for the n on - t echnical losses, a detailed description ls glven t o sh ow  th e different. r eason s for t.h es<~ losses.Policy options are then described for t h e  redu ct.ion of non - t.eclrnical losses.  This thesis also discusses the major role that electricity consumers can  play in conservin g en er gy th rough the effic:i ent use of el ectr.ic:al appliances. The  meas ures and policy opt.ion s for effecient use of electrical appliances for the  sake of conserving en ergy are also cl esc:ri becl.  0aElectric power distribution1 aEdelman, David J.,eChairperson 0 aWang Maohua,eExamination Committee 0 aYongping Zhai,eExamination Committee 2 aJapan,eScholarship Donor2 aAsian Institute of Technology.tThesis ;vno.
