Substation basics

Go backward a step

Power substations are critical infrastructure facilities that transform electrical energy from high-voltage transmission lines to lower-voltage distribution lines for consumer use. They consist of a large building or structure housing multiple transformers, switchgear, and other equipment. The primary function is to step down the voltage level, making it safe for residential and commercial use. Substations also handle the flow of electricity into and out of the grid, ensuring a stable and reliable supply of power. Their operations are vital to maintaining the integrity of the electrical grid and supporting the daily lives of millions of people worldwide.
