  • Abstract
    SINCE 1948, some 75 Rural Electrification Administration (REA) borrowers have constructed rural distribution systems which operate at 14.4/24.9 kilovolts (kv), grounded wye. Most of this construction has been in the sparsely settled areas of the South and Southwest where a number of factors combine to make the use of this voltage very attractive.
