Water loss is a serious problem in the world of drinking water management. In addition to disrupting services that result in economic losses, pipe leaks can cause health problems if contamination occurs. In this paper, the author will conduct a potential risk analysis of the causes of water loss to address technical problems in the management of transmission and distribution pipelines in the Regional Water Supply System of Bregas in Central Java, Indonesia. The author tries to present a simple method for assessing the potential risk of water loss from the physical aspects of the network and the environment with passive control. Passive control is a reaction to leaks that are usually reported by customers or recorded by company staff. In this study it was concluded that the pipe condition had the highest potential risk compared to other factors. And transmission pipelines from Kaligiri and Gombong springs are considered to have the highest risk of water loss. Although incomplete, this research can be a valuable reference source for practitioners and researchers dealing with water loss management in distribution systems and providing a road map for future research.
