Overview
Power plants convert the energy stored in the fuel or hydro into electric energy.
The energy is supplied through step-up transformers to the electric network. Power systems are comprised of 3 basic electrical subsystems. Generation subsystem Transmission subsystem Distribution subsystem
High-voltage networks, consist of transmission lines, connects the power plants and highvoltage substations in parallel. This network permits load sharing among power plants The typical voltage of the network is between 240 and 700 kV. The high-voltage substations are located near the load centers.
Subtransmission Network
The subtransmission system connects the highvoltage substations to the distribution substations.
The typical voltage of the subtransmission system is between 138 and 69 kV.
In high load density areas, the subtransmission system uses a network configuration that is similar to the high voltage network. In medium and low load density areas, the
Distribution Network
The secondary distribution system contains overhead lines or underground cables supplying the consumers directly by single- or three-phase power.
