Residential Power Distribution
A.
power distribution system
.distributes.electrical.power.
throughout.a.building..Power.distribution.systems.are.used.in.
every.residential,.commercial,.and.industrial.building..
Residential Distribution
.
Most.of.us.are.familiar.with.the.power.distribution.system.
found.in.the.average.home..Power,.purchased.from.a.utility.
company,.enters.the.house.through.a.meter.that.records.the.
electrical.energy.used..
The.incoming.power.then.goes.to.a.load.center.which.
provides.circuit.control.and.overcurrent.protection..The.power.
is.distributed.from.the.load.center.to.various.branch.circuits.
for.lighting,.appliances,.and.electrical.outlets..Careful.planning.
is.required.so.that.the.power.distribution.system.safely.and.
efficiently.supplies.adequate.electric.service.for.present.and.
possible.future.needs..
