Overview
What is a Power System?
Power system includes all parts of an electric
system power sources and customers.
What is the function of the system?
The Function of the system is to generate power , transmit this
power and to distribute it to customers at voltage levels and
reliability that are appropriate to various users.

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.

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.
