Distribution transformer substation

Distribution transformer substation
Distribution transformer substations are, one might say, the heart of the power supply of our cities and villages. Imagine a huge network of power transmission, through which a powerful flow of electricity from power plants flows. This stream is too strong to directly feed our houses and enterprises. This is where substations come to the rescue. They are similar to huge transformers that reduce the voltage of the high -voltage flow to a safe and suitable level for using.
Stress transformation: from giant to dwarf
The main task of the distribution substation is to lower the high voltage coming from the power lines to lower, used in everyday life and enterprises. It is how to reduce the flow of water from a powerful river to a thin trickle, convenient for use in home crane. Transformers installed at substations weaken tension, making it safe for household appliances and human life. This process is necessary for the effective and safe delivery of electricity to consumers.
Stripation of the flow: to each house and enterprise
After the voltage is reduced, the electric flow is distributed along numerous power lines of the smaller voltage. The substation is a kind of branch that directs energy in various directions, as a large node in the transport network. Hence the electricity goes to residential buildings, enterprises, shops and other consumers. This is just as a large river is divided into many streams irrigating fields and nourishing reservoirs. Without this function, the distribution of energy would be ineffective and complex.
Protection and control: reliability of energy supply
Distribution substations are equipped with a complex protection and control system. They control the voltage, current and other parameters, ensuring the stability of energy supply. In the case of accidents or overloads, the protection system automatically turns off damaged areas, preventing large -scale shutdowns. This is just as an experienced engineer monitors the operation of a complex system, preventing breakdowns and ensuring uninterrupted operation. Thanks to this protection, we can be sure of the stable and reliable power supply of our houses and cities.
