Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / Water supply
Spanish term or phrase: red sectorizada
From a report in Spanish from Spain for translation to British English. Desccribing a recently implemented water supply network configuration:

"Un ejemplo de estas técnicas es el Plan de Sectorización de la red de abastecimiento que se ha llevado a cabo en el periodo ¨[recent years], el cual ha permitido identificar [hundreds] sectores, también llamados DMA [from the English, District Metering Areas or District Metered Areas], que son zonas aisladas hidráulicamente entre sí pero conectadas con las arterias principales mediante un número reducido de puntos de entrada y salida."

Giving:

"ESQUEMA GENÉRICO DE FUNCIONAMIENTO DE UNA RED SECTORIZADA"

I have also seen "clusters" mentioned in English for collections of "sectors" or "districts" in water supply networks.
