We have many 3 phase complex edges with single phase transformers on the vertexes in the middle and at the end of these complex edges. I say complex edge since that is what the geometric network called them, now that is Edge Policy of Any_Vertex in the utility network.
After a bit of testing I have concluded 4 options:
Our preference is option 2, since we can control the splitting and update lengths. However, I feel this is at a big cost since with this option many new segments will need to be maintained. One of the reasons for keeping transformers on the lines is simpler for my integrations that require a spatial location.
What have others done in this situation? Any other suggestions I missed?
We battled some of these same issues and we already have the offset geometry for our units. a few things to note.

I hope this helps some.

Appreciate the comment! I recall reading the blog but apparently the Batch Trace missed my application appeal. I will have to give it a try.
