4. Classification based on voltage levels, e.g. :
A.C. Substation : EHV, HV, MV, LV; HVDC
Substation.
Classification based on Outdoor or Indoor :
Outdoor substation is under open sky. Indoor
substation is inside a building.
5. Primary Substations receive power from EHV
lines at 400KV, 220KV, 132KV and transform the
voltage to 66KV, 33KV or 22KV to suit the local
requirements .
Secondary Substations receive power at 66/33KV
which is stepped down usually to 11KV.
Distribution Substations receive power at 11KV,
6.6 KV and step down to a volt suitable for LV
distribution purposes, normally at 415 volts
8. Electrical transmission system is
the means of transmitting power
from generating station to
different load centres.

12. Used to reduce earth wire potential and stress on
insulators at the time of stroke and also for safety
Tower footing resistance will be 10Ω and should not
be more than 20 Ω under any condition throughout
the year.
Earth resistance depend upon soil
resistivity(general 100 Ω-m)
13. It provides a surface under the substation which has
uniform potential nearly equal to zero or Absolute
Earth Potential.
It is of two types
o Neutral Earthing
o Equipment Body Earthing
14.
15. Earth wire provided above the
phase conductor across the line
and grounded at every tower.
16. tIA 5
Where A= Area(in mm2) of conductor
I =current in KA
T = Time in second
Area of Steel Wire = 3*A(mm2)
For EHV line it is suggested as 70 mm2 (7/3.66
mm).
ACSR is used as earth wire (12/3.0 mm AL+7/3.0
mm steel)
17. Optical Ground Wire
Advantages :
Serves the dual purpose of ground wire
and communication.
High speed data transmission.

20. Major power station= 0.5 Ohm.
Major Sub-stations= 1.0 Ohm
Minor Sub-station = 2 Ohm
Neutral Bushing. =2 Ohm
Service connection = 4 Ohm
Medium Voltage Network =2 Ohm
L.T.Lightening Arrestor= 4 Ohm
L.T.Pole= 5 Ohm
H.T.Pole =10 Ohm
Tower =20-30 Ohm
25. Insulator are required to
support the line conductor and
provide clearance from ground
and structure.

29. A Transformer is a static
device that transfers Electrical
energy from one Electrical
circuit to another Electrical
circuit by means of a common
Magnetic Circuit.
