ABSTRACT
In Nigeria, challenges of power sector include among others, insufficient power generation and
inadequate or lack of quality apparatuses for efficient transmission and distribution of electric
power to consumers. Jimeta, being one of the major cities in Adamawa State, has experienced
increase in population and spatial expansion in recent years. This is partly due to the influx of the
Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from the northern and parts of the central regions of the
State as a result of the protracting Boko Haram insurgency. This has put pressure on the
available social amenities including electricity thereby making power distribution facilities, such
as transformers, spatially inadequate, resulting in unequal power distribution and overloads. The
aim of this study was analyze the spatial distribution of electricity transformers in Jimeta, Yola-
North Local Government Area of Adamawa State, Nigeria. The study used data acquired with
Hand-held GPS receiver, records of Yola Electricity Distribution Company (YEDC) and
population census data, and mapped out the spatial distribution of electricity transformers in
Jimeta using ArcGIS10.3 software. It further established the spatial pattern of point locations of
transformers; created a geodatabase for all the transformers; assessed the level of compliance to
the standards for transformer siting and also examined the extent to which population influenced
their locations. Nearest Neighbour Analysis (NNA) was carried out to determine the pattern of
distribution of transformer point locations. Projected population of the study area was used to
produce a population density map over point locations of the transformers were overlaid. Buffer
analysis in ArcGIS10.3 software was carried out to identify the location of transformers that
violated the 10m setback standard of the NERC (2016). The results showed that Jimeta had a
total of 324 transformers distributed across the city in various capacities ranging from 25kVA to
1000kVA. About 0.93% of the transformers are 25kVA at the lower extreme while, 200kVA
transformer accounted for 34.87% which was the highest. Public transformers distributed mostly
