  • This dataset provides the distribution substations within NGED's four licence areas and their connection to the primary substation. A distribution substation is an electrical substation that reduces voltage from high to low voltage, typically 230 or 400 voltages, suitable for local distribution to consumers. Distribution substations are often located near the point of supply, or connection. ### Notes Substations with less than 6 customers have had some data aggregated to primary substation level obfuscating customer and low carbon technology counts and capacities from the distribution substation. Demand and Supply Distribution Substations data Number of customers and LCTs by substation/transformer Substations with less than 6 customers have had some of their data obfuscated

  • The Electricity Supply Emergency Code (ESEC) describes steps which the UK Government could take to deal with a civil or electricity supply emergency, and the actions which companies in the electricity industry should plan to take and which may be required to deal with such emergencies. In the event of an emergency, ESEC enables an equal distribution of electricity supply to customers as far as reasonably practicable, whilst ensuring that pre-designated Protected Sites maintain supplies for as long as possible. The rota load scheme provides 18 plans, that set out the level and sequence of load block disconnections and reconnections.
