THE TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY.



Power stations, usually, are place in zones far than the áreas where we use the electricity for safety reasons, for need space or for geographical features.
Electrical energy cannot be stored. There re many steps in the progress of transportation of energy:

1 Raising the voltage: the voltage is raised ,by transformers to high voltajes, because the electricity must go over large distances.

2 High voltage lines: the routes that the towers where are intalled the lines are carefully planned.

3 Reducing the voltage: The substations ,which are installed between the high voltage lines and final consumers, use Transformers to reduce the power to lower voltages.

4 Finally the power is distributed to buildings, industries and public installations. Te electric lines are installed in posts or underground. The voltage is reduced, depending on the final consume.
