Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFRadial Distribution System:
- A radial distribution system is a type of electrical power distribution system where each consumer is connected to a single power source or feeder.
- This configuration is simple and cost-effective, but it has a disadvantage in terms of reliability, as a fault in the feeder can result in loss of power to all connected consumers.
In a radial distribution system, the power flows from the substation to the end consumers through a single path. This implies that the consumers are dependent on:
- Single Feeder: A single line or feeder that supplies power from the substation to various distribution points.
- Single Distributor: A single distribution network that distributes power to the consumers.
