DISTRIBUTECH International

DISTRIBUTECH is the show the distribution side of the industry actually attends. If your work touches feeders, substation automation, protection schemes, AMI, or the SCADA and ADMS layer above them, this is where vendors bring what they will ship next year and where utilities present what they have already put in the ground.

The exhibit floor is the reason most engineers go. Relay and recloser manufacturers, transformer suppliers, meter vendors and DERMS platforms are in one hall, which makes it a practical week for anyone specifying equipment or shortlisting a platform. The utility case-study sessions carry the useful detail: what a deployment cost, what broke, what they would do differently.

It runs alongside a heavy co-located programme, so days fill quickly. Register early if you need the workshops.
