Components of Power Systems - JSS2 Basic technology Lesson Note

Key components include generators, transformers, transmission lines, and distribution systems:

• Generators: Convert mechanical energy into electrical energy through electromagnetic induction.
• Transformers: Step up or step down voltage levels for efficient transmission and distribution.
• Transmission Lines: Transport electricity over long distances at high voltages to minimise energy loss.
• Distribution Systems: Deliver electricity at lower voltages to homes and businesses via substations and distribution lines.
