A substation is a part of an electrical generation, transmission, and distribution system. Substations transform voltage from high to low, or the reverse, or perform any of several other important functions.Actually, the name came before the electrical system was a grid. These substations were smaller plants that were no longer being used because of the construction of larger generation plants. They received their energy from these larger plants and then distributed; thus the name “substation”
The different types of substations mainly include Step-up Type Substation, Step-down Transformer, Distribution, Underground Distribution, Switchyard, Customer Substation, and System Station. The purpose of a substation is to 'step down' high voltage electricity from the transmission system to lower voltage electricity so it can be easily supplied to homes and businesses in the area through lower voltage distribution lines.
