Across
  1. 2. empty inside
  2. 4. disturbing
  3. 12. Definite shape and volume
  4. 14. feeder a large, primary distribution cable (350 MCM or larger) utilized to provide the main power supply to and through a subdivision through switching cubicles or underground risers.
  5. 15. distribution lines on the low-voltage side of the distribution transformer are called secondary distribution lines or secondaries.
  6. 16. reactive the name given to the opposition to a changing current flow. This impedance is measured in ohms, just like resistance. In inductors, voltage leads current by 90 degrees.
  7. 17. bay a substation bay relating to a feeder or a link to a transformer, a generator or another substation.
  8. 19. treated so as to impart increased strength and the property of shattering into pellets when broken.
  9. 20. A mixture of two or more metals
  10. 25. area transmission a three-phase electric power grid that has regional scale or greater that operates at a synchronized utility frequency and is electrically tied together during normal system conditions.
  11. 26. the full reach or length, especially between two points in space or time
  12. 27. string i the past
  13. 28. bank Devices that add capacitive load to a transmission and distribution system to counterbalance inductive load and are sometimes used to improve system efficiency
  14. 30. insulator An insulator commonly used for dead ends that is hung loosely from an eye
Down
  1. 1. land
  2. 3. switches an electric switch that isolates a circuit or piece of equipment after the current has been interrupted by other means.
  3. 5. Breaking down in sections
  4. 6. to set off/activate
  5. 7. circuit The circuit between one breaker box and another breaker box:
  6. 8. the quality of bending easily without breaking.
  7. 9. capable of being stretched
  8. 10. to like better
  9. 11. consistency and reproducibility of a given result
  10. 13. transformer ground mounted electric power distribution transformer in a locked steel cabinet mounted on a concrete pad.
  11. 18. to stretch out, reach
  12. 21. situated above the level of the head.
  13. 22. away from shore
  14. 23. the deterioration of a metal due to a chemical reaction in the environment
  15. 24. A material that does not allow heat or electrons to move through it easily.
  16. 29. The process of forming standard glass
