Transmission and distribution losses mean the losses that arise at the time of transformation of energy between the source of supply and the point of distribution.

This can be reduced by better management and use of advanced technology of transmission and distribution and by avoiding theft of power. The other methods to reduce transmission and distribution losses are –

•Having appropriate size of conductors

•Supply of power through meter

•Proper load management

•Regular energy audits and

•Privatization of the work of distribution
