Distribution automation can improve the speed, cost, and accuracy of several key distribution system processes, including fault detection, feeder switching, and outage management; voltage monitoring and control; reactive power management; preventative equipment maintenance for. The handbook describes various power distribution system constructions and elements there-of, technical considerations, distribution automation infrastructure and functionality, communication aspects, special automation applications and life cycle aspects. Examples of distribution automation tools include FLISR software, Volt/VAR management software, smart sensors and smart sensor software, automatic source transfer controls, capacitor bank controls, recloser controls, voltage regulator controls and automated switchgear controls. The concept of a Smart Grid is essentially the application of automation logic to the power distribution system.
