  • Abstract
    Raising the capital expenditure increases the amount of automation and remote communication deployed. The increasing level of DA improves reliability by decreasing the customer outage minutes. Modeling and subsequent analysis has revealed that the improvements from a modest investment may not be the optimal solution. The capital expenditure per CMI gained is an important metric. An additional investment many produce significant improvements in reliability.
