Energy losses occur in the process of supplying electricity to consumers due to technical and commercial losses. The technical losses are due to energy dissipated in the conductors and equipment used for transmission, transformation, subtransmission and distribution of power. These technical losses are inherent in a system and can be reduced to an optimum level.This paper presents a study on technical losses in distribution system and analysis of the impact of losses in power sector.The technical losses caused by material properties and its resistance to the flow of electrical current in distribution system will be analyzed and simulated through electrical transient analysis program. Moreover, the impact of different types of transformer and other equipment’s connections to the substation and feeder will also be investigated
