which we will discuss later. larger consumers and the type of the cables: different colors

B. Grid parameters
Although cable length and cross section was given by the
DSO, other electrical parameters (such as resistance, reactance
of cables) are unknown. Due to this lack of information we used
the built-in cable, transformer, etc. types of the DIgSILENT
Power Factory software, which types have all these necessary
information.
For transformers only the nominal power is known. Besides
that, all of the eight transformers have the vector group Dyn5,
which is common in the Hungarian low-voltage distribution
system. Built-in models were chosen for modeling these
MV/LV transformers as well. Fig. 1. Network topology
