INTRODUCTION
HIGH VOLTAGE (HV) SUPPLY-DISTRIBUTION-PUBLIC UTILITY SUPPLY AND LOW
VOLTAGE (LV) DISTRIBUTION .

An electric power distribution system is the final stage in the delivery of electric power; it carries
electricity from the transmission system to individual consumers. Distribution substations connect
to the transmission system and lower the transmission voltage to medium voltage ranging between
11/33 kV and 0.415 kV with the use of transformers. Primary distribution lines carry this medium
voltage power to distribution transformers located near the customer's premises. Distribution
transformers again STEP DOWN the voltage to the utilization voltage of household appliances and
typically feed several customers through secondary distribution lines at this voltage. Commercial
and residential customers are connected to the secondary distribution lines through service network.
Customers demanding a much larger amount of power may be connected directly to the primary
distribution level or the sub transmission level.

History
Further information: History of electric power transmission

The late 1870s/early 1880s saw the introduction of arc lamp lighting used outdoors or in large
indoor spaces such as this Brush Electric Company system installed in 1880 in New York City.

Electric power distribution only became necessary in the 1880s when electricity started being
generated at power stations. Before that electricity was usually generated where it was used. The
first power distribution systems installed in European and US cites were used to supply lighting: arc
lighting running on very high voltage (usually higher than 3000 volt) alternating current (AC) or

Direct current (DC), and incandescent lighting running on low voltage (100 volt) direct current.
Both were supplanting gas lighting systems, with arc lighting taking over large area/street lighting,
and incandescent lighting replacing gas for business and residential lighting.

Due to the high voltages used in arc lighting, a single generating station could supply a long string
of lights, up to 7-mile (11 km) long circuits, since the capacity of a wire is proportional to the
square of the current travelling on it, each doubling of the voltage would allow the same size cable
to transmit the same amount of power four times the distance. Direct current indoor incandescent
lighting systems (for example the first Edison Pearl Street Station installed in 1882), had difficulty
supplying customers more than a mile away due to the low 110 volt system being used throughout
the system, from the generators to the final use. The Edison DC system needed thick copper
conductor cables, and the generating plants needed to be within about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) of the
farthest customer to avoid excessively large and expensive conductors.

Introduction of the AC transformer

Trying to deliver electricity long distance at high voltage and then reducing it to a fractional voltage
for indoor lighting became a recognized engineering roadblock to electric power distribution with
many, not very satisfactory, solutions tested by lighting companies. The mid-1880s saw a
breakthrough with the development of functional AC transformers that allowed the voltage to be
"stepped up" to much higher transmission voltages and then dropped down to a lower end user
voltage. With much cheaper transmission costs and the greater economies of scale of having large
generating plants supply whole cities and regions, the use of AC spread rapidly.

In the US the competition between direct current and alternating current took a personal turn in the
late 1880s in the form of a "War of Currents" when Thomas Edison started attacking George
Westinghouse and his development of the first US AC transformer systems, pointing out all the
deaths caused by high voltage AC systems over the years and claiming any AC system was
inherently dangerous. Edison's propaganda campaign was short lived with his company switching
over to AC in 1892.

AC became the dominant form of transmission of power with innovations in Europe and the US in
electric motor designs and the development of engineered universal systems allowing the large
number of legacy systems to be connected to large AC grids.

In the first half of the 20th century, the electric power industry was vertically integrated, meaning
that one company did generation, transmission, distribution, metering and billing. Starting in the
1970s and 1980s nations began the process of deregulation and privatization, leading to electricity
markets. The distribution system would remain regulated, but generation, retail, and sometimes
transmission systems were transformed into competitive markets.

Generation and transmission

Simplified diagram of AC electricity delivery from generation stations to consumers' service drop.

Electric power begins at a generating station, where the potential difference can be as high as
13,800 volts. AC is usually used. Users of large amounts of DC power such as some railway
electrification systems, telephone exchanges and industrial processes such as aluminium smelting
usually either operate their own or have adjacent dedicated generating equipment, or use rectifiers
to derive DC from the public AC supply. However, High-voltage DC can be advantageous for
isolating alternating-current systems or controlling the quantity of electricity transmitted. For
example, Hydro-Québec has a direct-current line which goes from the James Bay region to Boston.

From the generating station it goes to the generating station’s switchyard where a step-up
transformer increases the voltage to a level suitable for transmission, from 44,000 to 765,000 volts.
Once in the transmission system, electricity from each generating station is combined with
electricity produced elsewhere. Electricity is consumed as soon as it is produced. It is transmitted at
a very high speed, close to the speed of light.

Distribution overview

General layout of electricity networks. The voltages and loadings are typical of a European
network.

The transition from transmission to distribution happens in a power substation, which has the
following functions:

 Circuit breakers and switches enable the substation to be disconnected from the transmission
grid or for distribution lines to be disconnected.
 Transformers step down transmission voltages, 35kV or more, down to primary distribution
voltages. These are medium voltage circuits, usually 600-35,000 V.
 From the transformer, power goes to the busbar that can split the distribution power off in
multiple directions. The bus distributes power to distribution lines, which fan out to
customers.

Urban distribution is mainly underground, sometimes in common utility ducts. Rural distribution is
mostly above ground with utility poles, and suburban distribution is a mix. Closer to the customer, a
distribution transformer steps the primary distribution power down to a low-voltage secondary
circuit, usually in 120 or 240V, depending on the region. The power comes to the customer via a
service drop and an electricity meter. The final circuit in an urban system may be less than 50 feet,
but may be over 300 feet for a rural customer.

Primary distribution
Primary distribution voltages are 33kV or 11 kV. Only large consumers are fed directly from
distribution voltages; most utility customers are connected to a transformer, which reduces the
distribution voltage to the low voltage used by lighting and interior wiring systems.

Voltage varies according to its role in the supply and distribution system. According to international
standards, there are initially two voltage groups: low voltage (LV): up to and including 1,000 V AC
(or 1,500 V DC) and high voltage (HV): above 1 kV AC (or 1.5 kV DC).

Network configurations

Distribution networks are divided into two types, radial or network. A radial system is arranged
like a tree where each customer has one source of supply. A network system has multiple sources of
supply operating in parallel. Spot networks are used for concentrated loads. Radial systems are
commonly used in rural or suburban areas.

Radial systems usually include emergency connections where the system can be reconfigured in
case of problems, such as a fault or required replacement. This can be done by opening and closing
switches. It may be acceptable to close a loop for a short time.

Long feeders experience voltage drop (power factor distortion) requiring capacitors to be installed.

Reconfiguration, by exchanging the functional links between the elements of the system, represents
one of the most important measures which can improve the operational performance of a
distribution system. The problem of optimization through the reconfiguration of a power
distribution system, in terms of its definition, is a historical single objective problem with
constraints. Since 1975, when Merlin and Back introduced the idea of distribution system
reconfiguration for active power loss reduction, until nowadays, a lot of researchers have proposed
diverse methods and algorithms to solve the reconfiguration problem as a single objective problem.
Some authors have proposed Pareto optimality based approaches (including active power losses
and reliability indices as objectives). For this purpose, different artificial intelligence based methods
have been used: micro genetic, branch exchange, particle swarm optimization and non-dominated
sorting genetic algorithm.

Rural services

Rural electrification systems tend to use higher distribution voltages because of the longer distances
covered by distribution lines (Rural Electrification Administration). 7.2, 12.47, 25, and 34.5 kV
distribution is common in the United States; 11 kV and 33 kV are common in the UK, Australia and
New Zealand, Nigeria: 11 kV and 22 kV are common in South Africa. Other voltages are
occasionally used. Distribution in rural areas may be only single-phase if it is not economical to
install three-phase power for relatively few and small customers.

Rural services normally try to minimize the number of poles and wires. Single-wire earth return
(SWER) is the least expensive, with one wire. It uses higher voltages (than urban distribution),
which in turn permits use of galvanized steel wire. The strong steel wire allows for less expensive
wide pole spacing. In rural areas a pole-mount transformer may serve only one customer.

Higher voltage split-phase or three phase service, at a higher infrastructure and a higher cost,
provide increased equipment efficiency and lower energy cost for large agricultural facilities,
petroleum pumping facilities, or water plants.

In New Zealand, Australia, Saskatchewan, Canada, and South Africa, single wire earth return
systems (SWER) are used to electrify remote rural areas.

Secondary distribution
Electricity is delivered at a frequency of either 50 or 60 Hz, depending on the region. It is delivered
to domestic customers as single-phase electric power. Seen in an oscilloscope, the domestic power
supply in North America would look like a sine wave, oscillating between -170 volts and 170 volts,
giving an effective voltage of 120 volts. Three-phase power is more efficient in terms of power
delivered per cable used, and is more suited to running large electric motors. Some large appliances
may be powered by three-phase power, such as electric stoves and clothes dryers.

A ground connection is normally provided for the customer's system as well as for the equipment
owned by the utility. The purpose of connecting the customer's system to ground is to limit the
voltage that may develop if high voltage conductors fall down onto lower-voltage conductors which
are usually mounted lower to the ground, or if a failure occurs within a distribution transformer.
Earthling systems can be TT, TN-S, TN-C-S or TN-C.

Regional variations

Worldwide electrical voltage and frequency.

220-240 volt systems

Most of the world uses 50 Hz single-phase 220 or 230 V residential and light industrial service. In
this system, the primary distribution network supplies a few substations per area, and the 230 V
power from each substation is directly distributed. A live (hot) wire and neutral are connected to the
building from one phase of three phase service. Single-phase distribution is used where motor loads
are light. In Europe, electricity is normally distributed for industry and domestic use by the three-
phase, four wire system. This gives a three-phase voltage of 400 volts wye service and a single-
phase voltage of 230 volts. For industrial customers, 3-phase 690 / 400 volt is also available. Large
industrial customers have their own transformers with an input from 10 kV to 220 kV. In the
Nigeria a typical urban or suburban low-voltage substation would normally be rated between
415 kVA and 1 MVA and supply a whole neighborhood.

110-120 volt systems

Most of the Americas use 60 Hz AC, the 120/240 volt split phase system domestically and three
phase for larger installations. Compared to European systems, North American ones have more
step-down transformers near customers. This is because the higher domestic voltage used in Europe
(230 V vs 120 V) may be carried over a greater distance with acceptable power loss.

Japan's utility frequencies are 50 Hz and 60 Hz

In the electricity sector in Japan, the standard frequencies for AC are 50 and 60 Hz. In Japan parts
of the country use 50 Hz, while other parts use 60 Hz. This is a relic of the 1800s. Some local
providers in Tokyo imported 50 Hz German equipment, while the local power providers in Osaka
brought in 60 Hz generators from the United States. The grids grew until eventually the entire
country was wired. Today the frequency is 50 Hz in Eastern Japan
(including Tokyo, Yokohama, Tohoku, and Hokkaido) and 60 Hertz in Western Japan
(including Nagoya, Osaka, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Shikoku, and Kyushu).

Most household appliances are made to work on either frequency. The problem of incompatibility
came into the public eye when the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami knocked out about a third
of the east’s capacity, and power in the west couldn’t be fully shared with the east, since the country
does not have a common frequency.

There are four high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter stations that move power across
Japan’s AC frequency border. Shin Shinano is a back-to-back HVDC facility in Japan which forms
one of four frequency changer stations that link Japan's western and eastern power grids. The other
three are at Higashi-Shimizu, Minami-Fukumitsu and Sakuma Dam. Together they can move up to
1.2 GW of power east or west.

Some Basic Considerations on


Power Distribution
With regard to electric power supply, the most important
task in the stage of establishing basic data is the estimation
of the power required for supply. In order to attain a
high level of efficiency, the components should work with a load
of 70 to 80% of the maximum power output. Under sizing
Causes malfunctions, while over sizing results in excess
Costs.
Network configuration and sources of supply
The network configuration is determined dependent on the
Requirements resulting from the building’s use. In line with
the specifications made by the installation company and
the intended use of the building, the required power
output must be distributed between different sources of
supply.
If redundancy is a system requirement, an additional reserve must be considered in the
planning. Besides the demand to be met by the normal power supply (NPS),
the power required from a safe and reliable source of
supply must also be estimated. This demand of safety
power supply (SPS) is divided between the emergency
Standby power system (ESPS) and the uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). When the NPS fails, the UPS shall be
Supplied from the ESPS. In addition, the power demand of
safety equipment (IEC60364-7-710 or respectively DIN VDE 0100-710, IEC60364-7-718 or
respectively DIN VDE0100-718) to be supplied by the SPS must be
considered. The dimensioning of the individual components results from the estimate of
energy and power required and their allocation to different sources of supply.

Regarding the planning concept for power supply, it is not
only imperative to observe standards and regulations, it is
also important to discuss and clarify economic and techni-
cal interrelations. To this end electric equipment, such as

13
14
distribution boards and transformers, is selected and rated
in such a way that an optimum result for the power system
as whole is achieved rather than focusing individual com-
ponents. All components must be sufficiently rated to
withstand normal operating conditions as well as fault
conditions. In addition, the following important aspects
must be considered, when drawing up the power supply
concept:

Type, use, and shape of the building (e.g. high-rise build-
ing, low-rise building, multi-storey building)

Load centres must be determined, as well as possible
routes for supply lines and possible installation sites for
transformers and main distribution boards

Building-related connection values according to specific
area loads that correspond to the building’s type of use

Statutory provisions and conditions imposed by building
authorities

Requirements by the distribution system operator (DSO)
The greatest potential for the optimisation of a project is
during the planning phase. At this stage, the course is set
for additional costs and cost increases which may incur
during the erection and subsequent use of the building.
For the purpose of integrated planning, a building is re-
garded as an entity, functionality is defined in line with the
processes running without limiting it to the individual
installations as used to be done in traditional approaches.
To this end it is necessary to define specifications compre-
hensively as early as in the planning stage. This is the only
way to implement a solution with optimally matched
systems and components. A seamless technical integration
of the different systems makes it possible to attain maxi-
mum process efficiency and reliability. At the same time,
costs weighing on building investors, users, and operators
can be reduced by exploiting synergies.
Integrated planning utilises the synergies of well matched,
intelligent, integrated systems and products from a single
supplier and implements them in cost-effective solutions.
Interfacing and elaborate harmonization of different sys-
tems and products becomes obsolete. The expense for
spare parts management and procurement is reduced.
Integrated communication systems can be used to connect
power supply/distribution systems and products to other
installations such as automated process and production systems or automated building
management systems. The wiring expense can be substantially reduced by a well
matched concept and thus the wider utilisation of the cable

14
15
infrastructure for data transmission attained from such a
concept. These are merely some examples, how the
cost-benefit ratio can be crucially improved by integrated
planning as compared to conventional planning.
The focus of Totally Integrated Power (TIP) lies on all power
distribution components as an integrated entity. TIP offers
everything that can be expected from a future-oriented
power distribution system: openness, integration, efficient
planning tools, manifold options for communication and,
as a result, a substantial improvement in efficiency. When
regarding power distribution requirements in terms of the
building automation, fire protection and safety systems
installations, it becomes soon obvious that the better the
individual installations are networked, the greater the rise
in savings potential. Cost reductions up to 25% are feasible.
Investors and building operators can thus provide a cost-effective power supply system and
boost its efficiency.
As a rule, greater efficiency provides the investor with
benefits – arising from approval and financing simplifications – in assessing the building
project. This also enables
investors and operators to provide a more cost-efficient and
environmentally friendly energy supply system for which
potential customers can be more easily won over and the
required earnings obtained. Users benefit from high-level
electricity supply in both quality and quantity at favourable conditions.

General Planning Considerations


On the one hand, it is up to the planner to win an edge
over his competitors and gain unique selling points by
offering modern, innovative concepts for the layout of
power supply systems and the selection of equipment. But
on the other hand, he is also responsible for his planning
work, which means that he may be held liable for damages.
Therefore it is important to clarify the project scope and the
economic conditions with the owner/developer at an early stage.
The Planner’s Tasks
The initial project planning stages are of vital importance in
this context. They determine the basic set-up and
guidelines for the further course of the project. Wrong
assumptions and imprecise specifications may result in
system over sizing which may bring about unnecessary
costs. Under sizing may result in overload and plant
Failures. This manual about the technical principles of
planning shall assist in sizing the super ordinate
Components for technical installations in buildings
properly even in these initial project stages. Its focus is on
components, systems and processes in electric power distribution.
Contents of the Individual Project Phases

Totally Integrated Power –
General Planning Considerations

It describes the solutions which the contractor has worked out for how to implement the project
on the basis of the design specification defined by the customer

The questions as to “How” a project should be put into practice and "Which tools or resources"
are to be employed are dealt with in the performance specification

The contents of the design specification are described in more detail, completed and written
into a plausible implementation concept and combined with technical operating and
maintenance requirements
Usually, each of the requirements of the design specification can be assigned to one or more
services defined in the performance specification. This also illustrates the order of
the two documents in the development process: A requirement is fulfilled, when the
corresponding feature is implemented.
When a design or performance specification is drawn up, it must be considered that
subordinate targets such as investment, losses, reliability, quality, and much more may
mutually influence one another. Listing up such conflicting relations and weighing them in the
project context will foster planning decisions and hence the focus that is placed on the design
and performance specification.
Weighing in the context of design or performance specification must be based on different
questions posed.
Tab. 1/1 shows a simple correlation matrix in which the
Competing situation of individual sub-targets is assessed.
For example, sub-target 2 – Low line losses – is strongly
influenced by sub-target 1 – Cost of investment – whereas
sub-target 4 – High reliability of supply – has no immediate interrelation with line losses.

Design/Performance Specification
The design specification and the performance specification are important aids in the first
phases.
Design specification
The design or product specification describes the “What?” and “For which purpose?” and
outlines the basic requirements. It is a rough target setting of the contract for the
contractor.

It specifies the scope of requirements defined by the contract awarding party as regards the
deliveries and services to be performed by the contractor within the
scope of the contract

It describes the direct requirements and the desires placed in a planned project or product
from the user's point of view

It serves as a basis for the invitation to tender, the tender or quotation, and the contract

Requirements shall be quantifiable and verifiable

The design specification is drawn up by the (external or in-house) awarding party, and it is
addressed to the contractors

In software development, the design specification constitutes the result of the planning phase
and is usually worked out by the developers as a preliminary stage to the performance
specification

Performance Specification
The performance or feature specification represents the target concept and is technically
detailed so far that it can act as the basis for a technical specification.

It is a detailed description of a service to be performed,
for example, the erection of a technical plant, the construction of a tool, or the creation of a
computer program
Technical equipment rooms
Besides a proper component rating, another essential planning aspect is the specification of
the size and location of the equipment rooms required for electric installations, which should
take place at the beginning of the planning considerations. The dimensions of these technical
equipment rooms depend on the dimensions of the components required and the relevant
safety regulations. Boundary conditions such as room ventilation, pressure relief in the event
of an arcing fault, ceiling loads and access ways for moving items in must also be taken into
consideration when drawing up room and building plans. Over-dimensioned rooms reduce the
profitability of a building (room utilisation). Under-dimensioned rooms may prevent that a plant
is erected in such a way that it can be approved, or at least force the use of expensive custom
solutions for the technology applied. This planning manual contains aids for determining the
room dimensions required for the individual components

CONCLUTION

HIGH VOLTAGE (HV)

11kv 3-phse supply from the electric mains come in through an 'H' pole or RMU to 50kva-

500KVA or equivalent with 11kv switch, lightning arrestors, dropout fuses and other

accessories as stated above. The transformer output was connected to an HT panel for

control and distribution purposes having stepping it down to 415V for consumer use. E.G.

FEEDER PILAR OR Gear switch.

LOW VOLTAGE (LV)

Low voltage from the step-down transformer, MCCB panel (of rating stated on the drawing)

incorporating motorized M/E interlock. The Lv. distribution system also comprises automatic

mains failure/load shedding /synchronizing panel which detects mains power failure and or

abnormality and sequent starts the generators, synchronizes them according to the power

requirement before automatically transferring the load to the generating system and

simultaneously disconnecting the mains supply from the LV bus section. When the mains

supply is restored or free of abnormality, the automatic operation panel connects the mains

voltage to the bus section and simultaneously disconnects the generator system from the bus

section and subsequently shuts down the generators in reverse order after no load run-off

time; it may be manually operating using mechanical interlock change over switch.
