Definition of Distribution
system :Distribution system is that part of the
power system which distributes power from
distribution substation to local use .
Generally the higher voltage for
distribution is 11000v and the lower
voltages are 400 v and 220v.

Radial
system
In this system all the sections/branches of a
feeder are fed from a single source in a fixed
direction

Contd
In this it is shown that
there are two primary
feeders from which
further sub feeders
supply
to
there
respective loads. If
any one of the feeder
becomes faulty then
supply through that
feeder has to cut so
no reliability

1. Very Simple in design :-
Suitable size of conductor.
Very simple protection
schemes.
Maintenance easy.
Easy fault location.
2.
Cheapest system :Less capital cost as different
sizes of
conductors can be used
7
Demerits
1. Very poor service reliability:In case of fault on a feeder the
supply to consumers from those feeders is cutoff
and restored on fault removal.
2.
Excessive voltage drop and line losses :Due to passage of total current
through the common main section of the feeder,
voltage drop(IR) and line losses will be more as
compared to other system.
8
If a HT line emanating from a Grid station
and covering the load area in shape of a
loop, finishes at the same Grid station
returning it is called closed loop and the
system is called closed loop system.

than

If any fault in
the system occurs then the breaker at grid station open
and the consumers dont have to wait very long till the
rectification of the fault as in the case of Radial system.
2.
Less voltage drop, less line losses
As compared to radial system the voltage drop and line
losses is less.

Demerits of closed loop
system
This is an expensive system because
of the following reasons.
It requires extra length of loop to complete the loop back to
sub-station.

If loop size is so large then the fault location time may
exceed up to 5 to 6 hours. and if consumers are without
electricity for this time then there is no justification to
install such a system

OPEN LOOP
SYSTEM
In a closed-loop system
with two
breakers,
if
one
of
the
two
sectionalizers of low-load-section is
kept normally open, the system is
named as open-loop system.

Double supply system is that system in which
additional radial feeder is provided side by
side to feed the same consumer. This means
that side by connecting of radial feeder in a
parallel manner. It uses automatic change

Merits:Higher service reliability.
Less line losses.
Demerits: Very Expensive
Extra feeders are installed which doubles
the cost.
Cost of sectionalizers.
Additional length of line needed to connect
the
feeder to the transformer.

GRID FORM OF H.V
SYSTEM
In this system all the distribution transformers of a
load area,
are interconnected providing normally two or
more alternatives. while the whole system is fed from two or
more supply sources.
But availability can not be improved
through manual operation of sectionalizer to isolate faulty
section during emergency as it will take quite a considerable
time to identify the faulty section and to determine the better
alternative.

Merits
Most reliable because normally no possibility of failure of
supply and availability is almost 100%.
In case of two simultaneous faults, service to the consumers
will not be affected at all, or effect will be limited.
Demerits
It is most costly system.
It is complicated.
21
LV Distribution
system:It is that part of power system which
distributes power from distribution
transformer to our domestic and commercial
use. Generally the LV distribution system has
voltage of
400 volts.
22
Some of the features
of LV
Distribution
In this system we can use Radial system as
system:-
LT lines feed only few consumers so in case
of fault only few consumers are affected.
Simplest and cheapest.
Again some important areas Open loop and
Closed loop systems might also be used.
