Know the Structural Components of the Power System

How electricity reaches from power station to your residence? Have you ever pondered over the fact? One answer to all your concern is the power system. It is the network that consists of power generation, distribution, and transmission of energy. Several devices, like synchronous generator, motor, transformer, circuit breaker, conductor, etc., are an integral part of this network. It is a complex structure subdivided into the following sub-systems. For more details on it, read the following blog or view Power System Analysis and Design 6th Edition Solutions Manual. Structure of the Power System Generating Substation Generating station coverts natural fuels like coal, water (for hydroelectricity), nuclear and others into the electrical energy. The power generated under this station ranges between 11kV to 25kV, used for long-distance transmission. Its power plant is classified into three major types, i.e. thermal, hydropower, and nuclear power plant. The main components of generati...
