In our research, we are focused on analysing the impact of illegal rainwater connections on the sewage network. During the normal operation of the sewage network, rainwater cannot be present. These heavy rains flows are extreme during rain events and the sewerage system is significantly overloaded and functionality it is reduced. Our study is based on the real data of the sewerage network and selected area of interest. In the assessment of illegal connections of rainwater, we use rainfall data according to the relevant ombrographic station.
