Abstract

In February 1991, the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) formed the Transmission and Distribution Engineering Committee (T&DEC). The purpose of T&DEC is to augment the Rural Electrification Administration´s (REAs) ability to provide rural electric systems with technical information by: providing a mechanism whereby engineers from the rural electric systems can work together on items of common technical interest; establishing a national forum through which engineers from the rural electric systems can exchange technical information; providing a channel for rural electric systems to provide input to REA on field experience with items of material and equipment included in the REA List of Materials; and providing a method for rural electric systems to suggest to REA new or revised material or construction specifications, standards, guides, or other technical material
