  Author(s): Okwuchukwu Nwaka* and Sogunro M. S
  
  The distribution of electricity to end users in most urban areas are faced with diverse spatial problems particularly due to the use of analogue facility management system. Based on this, the study seeks to demonstrate the effectiveness of geospatial technique for the management and maintenance of electricity distribution assets and infrastructure of a section of the Enugu Metropolis, Enugu State, Nigeria. It also assesses the spatial relationship between Electricity Distribution Company (EDC) assets and their customer’s connectivity in the study area. Data sourcing include collection of primary data where ground survey method was deployed through the use of handheld GPS for X, Y, positioning of these assets as well as direct interview of people within the study area and secondary data regarding feature attributes were collected from appropriate authorities, while a geo referenc..
