This document provides an overview of the distribution system layout for electricity, including:
- Generation of electricity at power plants and transmission through high voltage transmission systems and bulk power substations.
- Distribution of electricity from bulk power substations through distribution substations and distribution transformers to industrial, commercial and residential customers.
- Primary distribution systems operate at voltages from 4.16KV to 34.5KV, while secondary systems distribute power to end users at voltages ranging from 120/240V to 480V.
