  1. Overhead Distribution Systems

  2. The Example Distribution Circuit • Typical of suburban/rural circuits • 10 miles of 3-Phase 13.8 kV Main Feeder • 8 single-phase laterals, evenly distributed on the main feeder. Each lateral 3 miles long, and connected to the main feeder through a fuse • A total of 1800 customers (8 x 225 customers/lateral) Distribution Substation 10 miles 3 miles 115 kV 13.8 kV
