Abstract
The sources of losses, their effects on cables sizing, how they are affected by load growth rates and load shapes, and the economic evaluation of losses are discussed. A slightly different type of loss, the energy costs for operating circulating and cooling equipment for forced-cooled cable systems, is also addressed. Unified consistent methods for the cable engineer and system planner to evaluate the magnitude of losses on a cable system and the costs of those losses are developed. Detailed analyses of the transmission and distribution system addressing the technical and the economic impact of losses is provided
