Abstract: If a failure has occurred on the backbone-power-transmission-network side, i.e., the electric-power system, and if the power supply to a power-distributing/transforming substation is stopped, a power-distributing feeder is cut off from the electric-power system. Moreover, a monitor/control apparatus transmits a single-operation-permitting permission signal to a distributed power-source system which is connected to the cut-off power-distributing feeder. Here, the distributed power-source system supplies its power to the power-distributing feeder only during a time-interval in which the system is receiving the permission signal. A general load and an important load, which are connected to the power-distributing feeder, find it possible to continue their activities by taking advantage of this power.
