What is the difference between transmission, substation and distribution?
Answers from the sources
Partalum
“Transmission moves large blocks of energy at high and extra-high voltage (69 to 400 KV) over towers and long lines. The substation transforms and switches that energy between voltage levels. Distribution delivers the already reduced energy (up to 35 KV) to consumption. Partalum manufactures connectors and fittings for all three stages.”
