Assign unique ID to each feature of GIS Electrical Geometric Network

Question

Hi all,

I have an Raw electrical networks layers.. such as substations, hightension cable, lowtension cable, meters, fuse and 28 others. I want to assign each feature a of each  layer a unique ID, and then later need to have each features from-Uid and To-Uid to based on asset connectivity..

All I can think to solve this problem is by doing spatial analysis on each layer again and again, but this process is very complex and could take thousands of line of coding.

Is there any alternate way to assign unique id to each features of electric network based on connectivity?

kindly help

We are close to the release of the ArcGIS Utility Network Management extension for Enterprise. This will introduce and new and powerful way of managing utility networks to the entire platform (including mobile and web).

The term and the area of application is why I directed you to the documentation.  The first page of the link I posted in my previous field makes some suggestions of applications in the electrical and hydro distribution fields.  You should examine the documentation and your workflow to make that initial assessment, they people can help with specific questions.

Actually I have never used geometric network before, so I have no idea

about it. Will geometric network help me to achieve my objective?
