Electrical distribution network equipment guide : visual descriptions, metadata, and connectivity relationships / prepared by Alexandre Gagné, Dave Turcotte, Farah Sheriff.: M154-222/2026E-PDF

"This document describes the main equipment found in an overhead medium- and low-voltage electrical distribution network. It first presents the typical structure of a utility pole, including medium-voltage, low-voltage, and telecommunication lines. The various types of equipment are then detailed: fuse cutouts, disconnecting switches, transformers, capacitor banks, voltage regulators, overhead-underground transitions, and automatic circuit reclosers. For each, the document explains their function, visual characteristics, and relevant metadata for automatic annotation (phases, rated power, status, control, configuration, etc.). Several diagrams, examples, and counterexamples are provided to enhance visual identification in field-acquired data.The document concludes with an explanation of a data structure that enables the representation of the network in an electrical simulation, linking equipment from the source to the consumers"--Summary, page 1.
