AC Distribution System - Generation Distribution and Transmission
DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
The distribution system is a part of the power system, existing between distribution
sub-stations and the consumers.
In the beginning of electrical age, electricity was generated, transmitted and distributed
as direct current. The principal disadvantage of D.C. system was that voltage level
could not readily be changed, except by the use of rotating machinery, which in most
cases was tooexpensive.
With the development of transformer by George Westinghouse, A.C. system has
become so predominant as to make D.C. system practically extinct in most parts of
the world. The present day large power system has been possible only due to the
adoption of A.C. system.
Now-a-days, electrical energy is generated, transmitted and distributed in the
form of alternating current as an economical proposition. The electrical energy
produced at the power station is transmitted at very high voltages by 3- phase, 3-
wire system to step-down sub-stations for distribution.
The distribution system consists of two parts viz. primary distribution and
secondary distribution. The primary distribution circuit is 3-phase, 3-wire and
operates at voltages (33kV or 66kV or 11 kV) somewhat higher than general
utilization levels. It delivers power to the secondary distribution circuit through
distribution transformers.
• Continuity in the power supply must be ensured.
• Voltage must not vary more than the prescribed limits.(∓5%).
• Efficiency of line must be high as possible.
• Safefrom consumer point of view.
• Layout should not effect the appearance of locality.
• Line should not be overloaded.

SYSTEM
Now-a-days electrical energy is generated, transmitted and distributed in the form
of alternating current. One important reason for the widespread use of alternating
current in preference to direct current is the fact that alternating voltage can be
conveniently changed in magnitude by means of a transformer. Transformer has
made it possible to transmit A.C power at high voltage and utilize it at a safe
potential. High transmission and AC Distribution System voltages have greatly
reduced the current in the conductors and the resulting line losses.
There is no definite line between transmission and distribution according to voltage
or bulk capacity. However, in general, the AC Distribution System is the electrical
system between the step-down substation fed by the transmission system and the
consumers’ meters. The AC Distribution System is classified into
Primary distribution system and
Secondary distribution system
A.C. distribution calculations differ from those of DC distribution in the following
respects :
1. In case of DC system, the voltage drop is due to resistance alone. However, in AC
system, the voltage drops are due to the combined effects of resistance, inductance
and capacitance.
2. In a DC system, additions and subtractions of currents or voltages are done
arithmetically but in case of AC system, these operations are done vectorially.
3. In an AC system, power factor (P.F) has to be taken into account. Loads tapped off
form the distributor are generally at different power factors.
According to phases and wires involved, an AC distribution system can
be classified as
I. Single phase, 2-wire system
II. Single phase, 3-wire system
III. Two phase, 3-wire system
IV. Two phase, 4-wire system
V. Three phase, 3-wire system
VI. Three phase, 4-wire system
Single Phase, 2-Wire Distribution
This system may be used for very short distances. The following figure
shows a single phase two wire system with - fig (a) one of the two wires
earthed and fig. (b) mid-point of the phase winding is earthed.
This system is identical in principle with 3-wire dc distribution system. The
neutral wire is center-tapped from the secondary winding of the transformer and
earthed. This system is also called as split-phase electricity distribution system. It
is commonly used in North America for residential supply.
In this system, the neutral wire is taken from the junction of two phase windings
whose voltages are in quadrature with each other. The voltage between neutral wire
and either of the outer phase wires is V. Whereas, the voltage between outer phase
wires is √2V. As compared to a two-phase 4-wire system, this system suffers from
voltage imbalance due to unsymmetrical voltage in the neutral.
In this system, 4 wires are taken from two phase windings whose voltages are in
quadrature with each other. Mid-point of both phase windings are connected together.
If the voltage between the two wires of a same phase is V, then the voltage between
two wires of different phase would be 0.707V.
Three phase systems are very widely used for AC power distribution. The three
phases may be delta connected or star connected with star point usually grounded.
The voltage between two phases or lines for delta connection is V, where V is the
voltage across a phase winding. For star connection, the voltage between two
phases is √3V.
This system uses star connected phase windings and the fourth wire or neutral wire is
taken from the star point. If the voltage of each winding is V, then the line-to-line
voltage (line voltage) is √3V and the line-to-neutral voltage (phase voltage) is V. This
type of distribution system is widely used in India and many other countries. In these
countries, standard phase voltage is 230 volts and line voltage is √3x230 = 400 volts.
Single phase residential loads, single phase motors which run on 230 volts etc. are
connected between any one phase and the neutral. Three phase loads like three- phase
induction motors are put across all the three phases and the neutral.
Distribution system can be classified according to its connection scheme or
topology as follows –
I. Radial system
II. Ring main system
III. Interconnected system

The voltage between two phases or lines for delta connection is V, where V is the voltage across a phase winding. For star connection, the voltage between two phases is √3V.
  • 17. This system uses star connected phase windings and the fourth wire or neutral wire is taken from the star point. If the voltage of each winding is V, then the line-to-line voltage (line voltage) is √3V and the line-to-neutral voltage (phase voltage) is V. This type of distribution system is widely used in India and many other countries. In these countries, standard phase voltage is 230 volts and line voltage is √3x230 = 400 volts. Single phase residential loads, single phase motors which run on 230 volts etc. are connected between any one phase and the neutral. Three phase loads like three- phase induction motors are put across all the three phases and the neutral.
