I was wondering if there are any codes/regulations regarding the use of a subtransmission line as a distribution line. Also, if anyone has any thoughts or concerns about this practice?
I work for a municipal electric department. Our subtransmission voltage is 23kv. Our distribution voltages are 4160, 12470 & 23,000. We have plans to use an existing 23kv distribution line to also act as the subtransmission line that will be feeding two substations.
Personally, I don't like this idea. But, I'm here to try and get some hard facts concerning this practice, whether positive or negative.
Thank-you!
