Distribution upgrade decisions

• Which feeder, transformer, or voltage constraint limits service quality or DER connection?
• What upgrade provides the best reliability and capacity improvement per cost?
• How should upgrades be phased with demand growth or new connections?

Network upgrade outputs

• Feeder constraint and upgrade-options note
• Voltage, loading, and reliability improvement assumptions
• Preliminary scope for distribution reinforcement
• Prioritised upgrade pathway

Feeder inputs

• Feeder loading, voltage, outage, and transformer data
• Load growth and new-connection forecasts
• Existing network drawings and protection settings
• Utility standards, budget, and implementation constraints
