what happens to voltage as electricity goes from generation, transmission and distribution?​

Sagot :

↓|•FINAL ANSWER•|↓

Power, specifically the voltage level, sent through transmission lines is reduced, or ”stepped down,” via transformers and sent through distribution lines, Power travels on the distribution system at a voltage level that can be delivered directly to a home or business.

↓|•WHAT IS? VOLTAGE|

  • Voltage is the pressure from an electrical circuit's power source that pushes charged electrons (current) through a conducting loop, enabling them to do work such as illuminating a light. In brief, voltage = pressure, and it is measured in volts (V). ... Current returns to the power source.

↓|•WHAT IS? ELECTRICITY•|↓

  • Electricity is the flow of electrical power or charge. It is a secondary energy source which means that we get it from the conversion of other sources of energy, like coal, natural gas, oil, nuclear power and other natural sources, which are called primary sources.

↓|•WHAT IS? GENERATION,,TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION•|↓

  • Transmission and distribution refers to the different stages of carrying electricity over poles and wires from generators to a home or a business. ... After electricity has been generated, a system of electrical wires carries the electricity from the source of generation to our homes and businesses.
