High Voltage Transmission

High voltage transmission is the process of transporting electricity over long distances efficiently. Electricity is generated at power plants and then stepped up to very high voltages using transformers. This high voltage reduces energy loss during transmission because it allows current to be lower for the same power level. The electricity travels through large transmission lines across vast areas. Near consumption points, transformers step down the voltage to safer, usable levels for homes and businesses. This method ensures reliable, efficient delivery of electricity from power sources to end users while minimizing energy loss.
