From the central to the subscribers

Electric networks consist of all the devices intended to


the production, transport, distribution, and use of electricity since
the generation plants to the most remote country houses.
Electric networks aim to interconnect the centers of
production such as hydroelectric plants, thermal plants... with the centers of
consumption (cities, factories...).
Electricity is transported at high voltage, even very high voltage.

the intensity) then gradually lowered to the user's voltage level

Electrical networks are hierarchical:


In general, most countries implement
A THT transport network 220 …….. 800 KV
A high voltage distribution network 60……...170 KV
An MT distribution network 5.......... 36 KV (according to IEC)
A delivery network of the BT subscriber 400/230 V
This hierarchy, that is to say, the levels of tension used vary.

The IEC 38 standard notations use the following definitions:


HT for a composite voltage greater than 40 kV
The standard voltages are: 45 kV - 66 kV - 110 kV - 132 kV - 150 kV - 220 kV
- MT for a composite voltage between 1000 V and 35 kV
The standardized values are: 3.3 kV - 6.6 kV - 11 kV - 22 kV - 33 kV
BT for a composite voltage between 100 V and 1000 V
The standardized values are: 400 V - 690 V - 1000 V (at 50 Hz)

The new French standard UTE C 18-510 defines the levels of alternating voltage.

distinguish several subsets. These subsets are composed of the network

important production centers in order to ensure maximum security in the
electricity supply.

The adoption of a mesh structure ensures a much higher level of security.

provide standardized voltages not exceeding 25 kV. This voltage, too

I- INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRIC NETWORKS
Transport networks form a vast grid covering the territory, to
to which the sources and uses (groups, transformers) are connected.
ChaquenœudA, B and C constitute an 'interconnection post'. This post is in
general consisting of a main collector called "busbar" on which
connect the lines, by means of devices.
These networks are mostly aerial and underground in cities or at their
approaches. They are studied for a given transit generally corresponding to the limit
thermal of the line.

The protections of these networks must be very effective. As for their


exploitation, it is ensured at the national level by a control center or

3.2 The Distribution Network

The purpose of this network is primarily to transport electricity from the grid.
transport to the major consumption centers which are:
• Either in the public domain with access to the MT distribution network,
•Either from the private domain with access to high consumption subscribers
(greater than 10 MVA) delivered directly in HT. They mainly concern industrialists.
such as steelmaking, cement production, chemistry, rail transport, ...
The structure of these networks is generally of the aerial type (sometimes
basement near urban sites). The protections are of the same nature as those
used on transport networks, with the control centers being regional.

While transport networks have a national purpose, networks


distribution have the essential function of providing power to the networks of
distribution. These networks are directly fed from transport networks
through transformers and possibly by power plants
less importance whose power is on the order of several MW (at least)
for Morocco).
Distribution networks transmit much lower powers than those
of the transport network and consequently their operating voltage is lower (at

of tension. In Morocco, the levels are 20 kV as well as 22 kV (when the
distribution is entrusted to the ONE for medium voltage. For low voltage,
the voltage level is 220-380 V.

For reasons of ease of operation and protection, the networks of


distributions are of radial structure except when reliability requirements are
dominants (looped networks for medium voltage supply of very large
cities).

Low voltage distribution networks are three-phase with neutral


distributed and tree-structured. The connections of the subscribers are made either in
antenna on the public MT/BT distribution substations (also called subscriber substations);
either by derivation on an existing line.

Different MT distribution systems can be distinguished around the world:

The triphasic framework is composed of four wires, and the derivations,

several phase wires, depending on the power to be supplied, plus the neutral.
