Abstract :
The development of the Northern Telecom modular integrated power systems (MIPS) concept is described. The key issues related to the co-location of power, switching, and transmission equipment are addressed. The simplicity of the grounding of the distributed power is described in comparison with the complex and unmanageable grounding of the centralized power systems. The desirable reduction of the AC influence on the switches is also discussed.<>
