1 MINIMUM DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS Larry Vogt Manager, Rates
2 Minimum Distribution System What is MDS? MDS is an analysis module of the cost-of-service study in which distribution investment is classified between demand-related and customer-related cost components. Why is MDS important? MDS is key to determining the monthly fixed costs of providing basic electric service. It provides a cost justification basis for the Customer Charge portion of the rate structure.
3 Basic Cost Components The classification step of the cost-of-service study assigns all of the functionalized cost elements to the cost causation components of Customer, Demand, and Energy. Energy-related costs variable costs which are dependent on kwh requirements. Demand-related costs fixed costs which are dependent on kw requirements. Customer-related costs fixed costs which are independent of load or energy requirements. 3
4 Cost Classification Categories CUSTOMER COSTS Minimum Distribution DEMAND COSTS ENERGY COSTS
5 The Access Function Of The Distribution System All primary and secondary customers are connected to a distribution voltage source, i.e., a local substation. SUB There is a physical path which brings voltage to the customer s premise. Maintaining the voltage path ensures customer access to electrical power. 5
6 The Capacity Function Of The Distribution System Primary and secondary distribution system facilities and lines must be sized to adequately handle the customers demand for power. Electric service facilities are rated in terms of kva capacity (conductors rated in terms of ampacity). Customer Load Feeder Load 6

8 Objective of the Minimum Distribution System Analysis To assess each device utilized in the distribution system in terms of its mission in order to determine if its function is: Dependent on kw load requirements and therefore demand related, or Independent of kw load requirements and therefore customer related. 8

32 Pole Line Routing SUB 32
33 Clearance Requirements Poles lines must be designed to ensure proper safety clearances, such as specified in the National Electric Safety Code (NESC), Section 23. The NESC provides specific minimum clearances of power lines located over: Roadways, parking lots, driveways, pedestrian areas, railroad track rails, water ways, etc. Other electric conductors and services, trolley/electric train cables, communications cables, etc. 33
34 Pole Line Grading IMPROPER GRADING: POLES ALL HAVE THE SAME HEIGHT PROPER GRADING: POLES WITH VARYING HEIGHTS 34
35 Distribution Pole Classification Conclusion On Pole Height Pole lines are built to connect customers to the power source, i.e., the substation. The routing of these lines is predominantly a function of where customers are located. Pole height requirements are predominantly a function of clearances and line grading, which are related to safety and mechanical design. Thus, pole height is not a major function of load. 35

39 Pole Class Requirements Based On Transformer Capacity 0 TRANSFORMER kva POLE CLASS TRANSFORMER 2 TRANSFORMERS 3 TRANSFORMERS 39
40 Distribution Pole Classification Conclusion On Pole Class The physical sizes and weights of line transformers and wires are related to their current carrying capabilities. Pole class must be increased (i.e., going from 7 to 1) to carry heavy mechanical loads caused by large line transformers and conductors (3Φ lines are indicative of greater electrical load density than 1Φ lines). Thus, pole class is predominantly a function of load. 40
41 Pole Capacity Poles have no electrical capacity component, but they do have a mechanical capacity (strength) component that can be viewed as a proxy for electrical loading. Pole class (or circumference) can represent loading capability for wood poles, but it does not work for steel or concrete poles since different classes can have the same physical dimensions. Ground line moment capacities do differ by class for all poles. Example: 35 5-C Pole Transverse Wind Load of 1,200 lb GLMC = 33,000 ft-lbs = 33 kips 41
42 Weighted Linear Regression For Distribution Poles m = [ N nxy] [ nx ny] 2 [ N nx ] [ nx] 2 SLOPE N = Total feet of all poles of a given type, e.g., 55,642 ft of 40 ft wood poles n = Number of feet of a given size pole based on its GLMC, e.g., 21,137 ft of kilopounds (kips) poles b y-intercept ny nx = m N N X = Ground Line Moment Capacity in kips, e.g., 48.0, 60.8, 76.8, 96.0, etc. Y = Pole unit cost in $ per feet, e.g., $12.05/ft (cost of a 76.8 kips pole) 42
43 Zero-Intercept Example Wood Poles 1. ZERO-INTERCEPT: $7.883/ft Based on various kip ratings of 40 southern pine poles 2. TOTAL LINEAR FEET OF WOOD POLES: 5,579,390 ft CUSTOMER COMPONENT = $ ,579,390 = $43,982, TOTAL WOOD POLE COST: $66,254,744 DEMAND COMPONENT = $66,254,744 - $43,982,773 = $22,271,971 CUSTOMER COMPONENT = 66.4% DEMAND COMPONENT = 33.6% 43
