The imbalance occurs in singlephase loads, namely in the R, S and T phases. So in this study, it is necessary to balance the load using the load equalization method so that the load becomes balanced. The BJ38A substation experienced a load imbalance of 15.3667% after balancing the load, the load imbalance decreased to 2.615%. The percentage of losses in neutral conductors is 0.984% to 0.0133%. It can be said that load balancing with the load equalization method is quite effective in reducing the value of losses for BJ38A distribution substation customers.} }
