The power distribution industry is demanding automation in order to control and monitor real -
time data over a communication system. Since the late 1990s, automated dete ction of feeder
faults and reconfiguration to restore power to un-faulted sections has been in trend. The feeder
automation system provides several benefits to utilities and customers, including shorter outage
durations, fewer sustained outages, improved performance indices, enhanced operational
efficiencies, and improved service quality.
Feeder automation distribution systems accurately detect & locate feeder faults, isolate the
faulted sections of the feeder, and restore power as quickly as possible. Furt hermore, the U.S.,
Canada, Mexico, the U.K., Germany, China, and Japan are also key markets, where distribution
operators and service providers are focusing and creating huge prospects in this service industry.
Europe and Asia-Pacific are in their growth stage for distribution automation activities; as a
result, there are high prospects for this service industry in recent times.
Consequently, increasing technologies for reducing power outages and efficiency of the current
distribution system is continuously encouraging the need for automation of distribution feeders.
Hence, governments, private distribution utilities & service providers, and equipment
manufacturers are continuously trying to integrate their existing technologies and develop new
ones extensively through R&D, to decrease power failures and impose the effect of using
automated distribution feeder systems.
This market is dominated by many global players and the rest of the market is fragmented
between few regional players, and hence, new product/technology launches is becoming a key
strategy for feeder automation service providers and equipment manufacturers.
