rozvodné

Rozvodné is an adjective used in Czech and Slovak to denote anything related to distribution, especially the distribution of electricity. It is employed in compound terms to describe networks, equipment, or voltages that move energy or other resources from a source to end users.

In electrical engineering, rozvodné refers to the part of the system that delivers power from the high‑voltage transmission network to consumers. Rozvodné sítě are the distribution networks that connect the transmission grid with customer installations. Rozvodné napětí describes the voltage level used in the distribution system, typically lower than transmission voltages; common values include low voltage around 230 V single phase and 400 V three‑phase, and medium‑voltage levels depending on the country. The corresponding infrastructure and equipment are described as rozvodné zařízení and rozvodné vedení, covering cables, transformers, switchgear, and related components.

The term is widely used beyond electricity to describe other kinds of distribution systems where a central source delivers services to multiple endpoints, such as water or data networks. In technical and planning contexts, rozvodné terms appear in documentation, design, operation, and regulation of infrastructure networks, reflecting the role of distribution facilities in delivering energy and resources to end users.
