5.1.5
The urban consumers connected to The Power Company Network are located in Invercargill, Gore, Winton, Te Anau and Mataura. The boundary between the urban and rural consumers is at the point in the Network coincident with the outer most quarter acre section. Small rural towns were not included in this category as the number of inhabitants in the urban area had to exceed 3,000.
5.1.6
The isolated rural consumers were those consumers connected to The Power Company Network who were at least 5 km further down the line than the nearest connection.
5.1.7
Most of the consumers connected to The Power Company network are in the rural areas and from previous investigations and reports, it has been found that the rural density was pretty well uniform throughout Southland apart from the above isolated rural consumers.
