Overview

Power plants convert the energy stored in the fuel or hydro into electric energy.
The energy is supplied through step-up transformers to the electric network. Power systems are comprised of 3 basic electrical subsystems. Generation subsystem Transmission subsystem Distribution subsystem

High Voltage Network

High-voltage networks, consist of transmission lines, connects the power plants and highvoltage substations in parallel. This network permits load sharing among power plants The typical voltage of the network is between 240 and 700 kV. The high-voltage substations are located near the load centers.

Subtransmission Network

The subtransmission system connects the highvoltage substations to the distribution substations.

The typical voltage of the subtransmission system is between 138 and 69 kV.
In high load density areas, the subtransmission system uses a network configuration that is similar to the high voltage network. In medium and low load density areas, the

loop or radial connection is used.

Distribution Network

The distribution system has two parts, primary and secondary.

The primary distribution system consists of overhead lines or underground cables, which are called feeders. The feeders supply the distribution transformers that step the voltage down to the secondary level.

The secondary distribution system contains overhead lines or underground cables supplying the consumers directly by single- or three-phase power.
