Power distribution network performance data presentation system and method
First Claim
1. A method of presenting electric power distribution network (EPDN) performance data, wherein the EPDN includes a network circuit including a plurality of transformers, the method comprising:
- acquiring data derived from measurements of a performance parameter of a plurality of transformers;
wherein the measurements comprise measurements of a parameter taken at each of the plurality of transformers;
determining whether the data associated with each of the plurality of transformers satisfies any of three or more conditions for the performance parameter;
displaying a network circuit diagram wherein the plurality of transformers are represented by a first indicia,wherein the relative positions of the first indicia substantially correspond to the positions of the transformers in the network circuit;
displaying an indication of the performance parameter for each of the plurality of transformers; and
wherein the indication of the performance parameter for each of the plurality of transformers indicates whether the data associated with each of the plurality of transformers satisfies any of three or more conditions for the performance parameter.

Abstract
A visualization system for monitoring performance data of an electrical power distribution network is provided. In one embodiment, a user may select a network circuit and view a network circuit diagram that includes indicia representing transformers and other electrical power distribution network elements positioned on a map. The relative positions of the indicia on the network circuit diagram may correspond to the relative physical locations of the transformers in the geographical area represented by the map. The indicia may be color coded to convey performance data to the user.
