from the centrals to the stations
4. Distributions
Substations: transformers
lower the voltage between 66000
and 11000 volts
5. Transportation: an
interconnected system
distributes energy
6. Rush: cables carry
energy to the meter that
measures the consumption
7. Switch: when activated
copper lamellae together and
become electrical conductive
allowing energy travel from the
