According to Electricité du Liban's employees in 2016 (diagram d216edl-sd), there is one possible explanation for the ten missing sectors. Numbers were likely reserved to be assigned to large sectors that may need further subdivision in the future, after reaching a saturation point. However, the emergence of a sector in the late 1990s discredits this claim by clearly following a logic of accumulation and expansion rather than saturation and subdivision.
