Communication Systems 
	TEPCO owns and operates its own in-house communication networks composed
	  of optical fiber channels (overall length approximately 63,000km, as of 2004),
	  metallic cable channels, microwave channels and satellite communication channels.
	
These networks provide signal transmission channels of protective relay systems,
	  power facility supervision/control systems and business communications, thereby
	  contributing to a stable, efficient supply of electric power in a wide area.
	TEPCO can provide planning technology to construct communication networks
	  for protective relay systems and so on.
	TEPCO participates in and launches communication business actively. So TEPCO
	  can provide planning technology to construct communication business networks,
	  considering individual situations.
	
	Facility Supervision and Control (SCADA) 
	
	Planning technology for constructing data exchange channels of various information,
	  such as the numerical information of each electrical station ,the information
	  of switched status and fault information.
