1.1 INTRODUCTION
The sectionalizer is a self-
contained, circuit-opening device used in conjunction
with source-side protective devices, such as reclosers
or circuit breakers, to automatically isolate faulted
sections of electrical distribution systems. Power to
operate the control circuitry and the mechanism is
obtained from the line through the sensing-current
transformers. No auxiliary power supply, external
connections, or external equipment is required.
The sectionalizer senses current flow above a preset
level, and when the source-side protective device
opens to de-energize the circuit, the sectionalizer
counts the overcurrent interruption. Sectionalizers are
an economical method of further improving service on
distribution lines equipped with reclosers or reclosing
circuit breakers. They isolate permanent faults and
confine outages to smaller sections of line.

1.2 STATEuENT OF THE PROBLEu:
As per inquiries in uORESCO ʹ 1, the researcher
obtain problems regarding power quality. In order to
meet the needs of the customer, the study focuses on
the sectionalizing of the feeder lines in terms of critical
loads.
1.3 SCOPE AND LIuITATIONS:
Power distribution of uORESCO ʹ 1 has a large
concern to be considered, the researcher limit the
study on sectionalizing the feeder lines of Opol and
Lumbo substations.
1.4 Significance of the study:
The study is important for the benefits of both
distributor and the customers, among are as follows:
`Ensure the quality of electric power in the
distribution system.
`Distribution system will be operated in safe and
efficient manner and with a high degree of
reliability.
`ueet the specific needs of the customers in the
system.
