Abstract

Distribution system is the final stage of electric power system, and can be classified based on voltage level, location, number of wires, and types of customers. This chapter explains the various classifications of the distribution system in detail. System reliability is one of the important design concerns for any distribution system. The various methods of design concept to improve reliability are clarified. Reactive power compensation is another main concern in a distribution system. Methods of reactive power compensation are also detailed.
