Abstract :
Proactive management of low voltage (LV) networks to reduce interruptions, costs, repetitive faults and complaints, using a combination of directed fault management and a suite of innovative technology, is discussed. The paper outlines progress in these techniques and poses some very real challenges to innovators and managers of large scale underground LV networks alike
