Abstract

This project aims to study the behavior of residential loads when subjected to variations in tension, as well as the resultant behavior of aggregated loads, under the same conditions. The research will be realized by means of laboratory experiments and mathematical load models, aiming the obtainment of an efficient methodology for modeling aggregated loads. (AU)
