The following Schematics contain several simple Residential Power Distribution schemes, detailing the "Primary" sides and step-down transformers.

These should assist in understanding some key items related to "Common Neutrals" for Distribution systems and enhance an understanding of the Medium Voltage Distribution on a simple Residential System.

Feel free to post questions relating to this / these drawings in the Electrical Theory section at:

Discussion-Residential Dist. Systems

Here are the drawings......
