The paper presents an analysis of the impact of consumption of air conditioning in the form of daily consumption diagram as well as their impact on the achieved power consumption maximum during the summer period. Three cases were observed, regarding 10 kV cables, that supply with electricity mainly: the commercial sector, residential area that does not use electricity for heating and residential area that uses electricity for winter heating. At the same time the winter maximum in the each of the observed cases, as well as the possibility of exceeding the allowable current loads on the routes of monitored 10 kV cables are analyzed.
