Which term describes the low voltages that run from the pole to the customer?

• A. Medium voltages in the distribution network
• B. Low voltages that run from pole to customer
• C. High voltages that run from pole to feeder
• D. Ground fault protection equipment

Answer: (B)

The phrase describes the service drop—the portion of the distribution system that carries the final, low-voltage power from the pole to the customer’s meter and panel. After voltage is stepped down from higher distribution levels, these wires deliver service directly to homes and businesses. This is distinct from medium-voltage primary lines that feed neighborhoods, or high-voltage feeders, and it isn’t protective equipment. So this wording correctly identifies the final low-voltage path to the customer.
