- Electrical grid topology: medium voltage grids shall be designed in an open loop operation form.  Loop circuits are powered by two sources or double sectionalized bus bars in power stations. Major transmission lines are designed to convey 60-70% of power supply capacity as backup transmission lines to meet other electrical load requirements in case of emergency.  

- Wire and cable section:

+ Underground cables are XLPE dry insulated ones with the section of 240mm² for major transmission lines, ≥ 95 mm² for main transmission branches and ≥ 50 mm² for transmission sub-branches. Neutral wires are made from underground cable-like fibers with copper layers or attached by one neutral wire running outside;

+ Overhead transmission line: Use electrical wires ACKP ≥ 185 mm² or coated copper wires CVX ≥ 185 mm² for major transmission lines; wire section ACKP ≥ 95 mm², or coated copper wires CVX ≥ 95 mm² for main transmission branches and wire section ACKP ≥ 70 mm² or coated copper wires CVX ≥ 50 mm² for transmission sub-branches.

...

...

...

- Bars: Use bars made from composite or zinc plated steel materials according to the required standard.

- Insulators: Use 24kV or 35 kV insulators preventing sea salt contamination according to the required standards.

b) Distribution transformer stations

- Voltage ratio: 22/0.4 kV (three phase) or 12.7/0.22 kV (single phase).

- Installation types:

+ Outdoors, indoors or inside compact cabinets;

+ Voltage transformer having the capacity equal to or less than 560kVA, and mounted on electric poles or placed on frameworks.    Higher capacity transformers shall be placed on outdoor concrete platforms (platform-type transformer stations), indoor concrete platforms (area-type transformer stations) or inside compact cabinets (compact/ kiosk-type transformer stations).

- Voltage transformer range shall meet current standards, including:

+ In central areas, new urban zones, major residential areas, or locations providing electrical loads for industrial, small industrial and handicraft production, using three-phase transformers with the capacity range from 160 - 630kVA;

...

...

...

+ Customers’ dedicated transformer station with specifically calculated coefficient ≥ 65% of the rated capacity. 

c) Low-voltage grids

- Design 220/380V three-phase four-wire system having directly grounded neutral conductors. Power supply diameter ≤ 800m, depending on the high or low electrical load density. In central areas, transmission lines shall be placed underground to protect urban aesthetics.

- Conductor section: ≥ 70mm² for major transmission lines; ≥ 50mm² for transmission branches; conductor section must be relevant to the electrical load density of each region and conform to the voltage loss requirement which is less than 5%.

d) Transmission sub-branches and electricity meters installed at resident’s homes

- Use covered twisted copper wire and copper – aluminum clamps connected to low-voltage transmission line with proper conductor section. The average length of conductor running to resident's homes is approximately 40m. 

- Use covered Muller pair cables connected to electricity meters. Use composite box-type electricity meters placed indoors or at positions which are aesthetically pleasing and convenient for operation and control.
