Complex, technical aspects of electric distribution systems are explained in 'lay terms' in this new book providing readers an understanding of complex engineering issues even if they lack a technical background. After briefly covering electricity generation and transmission, chapters deal with primary distribution, distribution transformers, secondary characteristics, 'load' characteristics, other equipment and components, and then deals specifically with street lighting, systems operations, and metering. In addition, components and equipment used in distribution systems are readily identified and explained.
