ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTION NETWORK

An electrical distribution system is a network of electrical components designed to distribute electrical power from a power source to end-users. It consists of various components such as power transformers, circuit breakers, switchgear, and distribution lines. The primary purpose of an electrical distribution system is to supply electrical power to homes, businesses, and other facilities. The power source for an electrical distribution system is typically a high voltage transmission line that carries power from a power plant or substation. This power is then stepped down to a lower voltage level by a power transformer, and then distributed through various lines and cables to end-users. The distribution lines may be overhead or underground, depending on the location and local regulations. The switchgear is used to protect and control the flow of power through the system, and circuit breakers are used to protect against overloads and faults. Electrical distribution systems are essential
