The reliability of the electric power distribution system is influenced by the effectiveness of the maintenance of the 20 kV Medium Voltage Air Line (SUTM) network. This study aims to describe the implementation of the 20 kV SUTM network maintenance at PT PLN (Persero) ULP Demak and evaluate its role in maintaining the reliability of the distribution system. The research method used is descriptive with a field study approach through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature studies. The results of the study indicate that network maintenance includes preventive, corrective, and emergency maintenance. Preventive maintenance is carried out through network inspections, insulator cleaning, vegetation pruning, and equipment condition checks, while corrective maintenance is carried out on components that are damaged due to operational disruptions or environmental factors. The implementation of maintenance that is carried out in a planned and procedural manner contributes to maintaining the reliability of the distribution network and minimizing the potential for disruptions so that the continuity of electricity distribution to customers is maintained.
