Abstract: Maintenance is a crucial for a proper functioning of equipment in industrial installations. In this study, we recorded the failures recorded in the medium voltage grid (MVG) of the Gambela I district of the city of Lubumbashi, with aim to adequately address this problem for the proper functioning of the electrical grid. The objective of this study is to prioritize the various causes that disturb the functioning of the power grid and to provide the solutions to make the grid healthy, by using the ABC method translated and interpreted by the Pareto curve. This method is relevant because it allows the investigation of events and the highlighting of important elements of a problem to facilitate choices and priorities. It is a question of identifying failures and detecting their causes and frequencies in order to take appropriate measures for better network performance. Various causes have been recorded in particular causes of electrical origin such as circuits and surcharges; there are also causes due to the upstream network. All these causes are presented in statistical form in the development of our work, and for a period of three months, we noted 83 cuts for a total of 1185 hours of shutdown in supply of electrical energy.

Abstract: Smart cities today have become an example of technological development progress, since they greatly improve the quality of life of its inhabitants through the use of intelligent systems and networks, in addition to communication in times very close to the real time between different access points where people could connect safely and efficiently, the Quito metro is a new project and the first underground metro built in Ecuador, so at a historical level there is no precedent for it. The following document presents the optimization, dimensioning and routing of intelligent communication networks throughout the stations of the future Quito metro, with the aim of demonstrating the advantage of having intelligent stations that allow passengers to know exactly where the unit is located. to which you want to go and the departure and arrival times of the same, together with free internet access that is visible in each of the stations, whether main or secondary in the metro, through the Dijkstra algorithm method used for the Optimum routing between access points with the aim of minimizing the cost between them starting from a central or origin point to secondary points of the same system, used mainly in communication networks of new systems and current technologies.
