10 Primary Distribution Planning and Engineering Interactions
10.1 INTRODUCTION
This chapter is in essence a continuation of Chapter 9’s discussion about engineering paradigms and methods. Here, the focus is on the distribution system. The power distribution system (primary feeder system) accomplishes more of the power delivery function in most electric utility systems than any other level of the system. Power is routed into a few locations in fairly large amounts, and the distribution system then routes and sub-divides that power into smaller allotments delivered to many different locations. No other layer of the power system accomplishes so much dispersion over area or so much sub-division of power from large to small.
