Nous pensons qu'il est plus logique de boucler un réseau de distribution d'eau qu'un réseau d'aqueduc. Le "réseau d'aqueduc" désigne l'ensemble des installations à l'alimentation en eau, tandis que "réseau (de distribution) d'eau" se rapporte particulièrement à l'ensemble des conduites faisant partie d'un réseau d'aqueduc. Voir ces deux fiches en banque. Il est à noter, en outre, que "réseau d'aqueduc" est un canadianisme critiqué. "Adduction d'eau" est le bon terme à utiliser à la place. 3, record 2, French, - bouclage%20de%20r%C3%A9seau%20de%20distribution%20d%27eau
