(BEDAS) which takes place at IstanbulTurkey is investigated. A ring network consisting of residential loads is taken into account for this study. Real system parameters and measurement results are used for simulations. Also, probable working conditions of the system are analyzed for 50, 75, and 100 loading of transformers with similar harmonic contents. Results of the study are exhibited the influence of nonlinear loads on THDV, P.F. and technical losses of the medium voltage distribution system.</abstract> <index>Open Science Index 104, 2015</index> </article>
