electrical distribution
Electrical distribution is the process of delivering electrical power from transmission lines to homes and businesses. After electricity is generated at power plants, it travels through high-voltage transmission lines to substations, where the voltage is lowered for safety and efficiency. From these substations, electricity flows through distribution lines—often underground or on poles—to reach local areas. Finally, transformers reduce the voltage further so that it is safe to use in appliances and lighting. This system ensures a reliable supply of electricity, managing voltage levels and pathways to safely and efficiently distribute power throughout communities.
