Electric Utility Network Foundation can be used to start a utility network implementation. It provides a data model to make a utility network behave like an electric system and a framework to accelerate deployment.
This solution provides the foundational electric distribution and transmission utility network schema as well as a streamlined implementation of utility network services to power data management, analysis, and map viewing apps and integrations.

The Electric Utility Network Foundation template is a starting place to implement a utility network for an electric distribution or transmission system. The included data model represents common electric cable and equipment as a utility network. The provided data model is not intended to include every possible variation of cable and equipment. Most organizations will extend the provided data model to represent how their electric systems are constructed, and to integrate with other information systems.
The Electric Utility Network Foundation template will change as new capabilities are added to the utility network and best practices evolve. It is important to understand that you are not required to upgrade your implementation to stay in sync with changes to the Electric Utility Network Foundation. Remember the Electric Utility Network Foundation is a starting point and your implementation will branch away from it.
When considering whether to migrate your implementation to a newer version of the Electric Utility Network Foundation, it is important to understand that migration may entail a significant amount of work and expense. As a matter of best practice, you should identify the benefits of migrating to a new version of the Electric Utility Network Foundation and evaluate the benefits against the work and expense. Only if there is a significant positive benefit should you consider upgrading.
