Power and Distribution Transformers in India and Their Importance


Electricity is one of the most important needs of the humans of the current era. The day to day needs as well as luxuries both are some way or the other connected to power. India is a developing country which has witnessed enormous fundamental and infrastructural development country wide. From tall super markets to high tech airports, daily human needs to techno savvy craves we need power for everything. Rajasthan Powergen, the leading transformer exporter in India is here providing the details of energy distribution process.

 At our daily need level when we switch on the bulb it fills the entire room with light but have you ever wondered how and from where this has reached us..!! Well power distribution is a long process which includes various level and stages right from where it is generated to reaching the substation and finally to the consumer.

Substations – After the electricity being generated at the huge terminals it is purchased by the local provider who then transmits it to the distribution division which is the place where the high dosed electricity  that has a power of approximately 46,000 to 115,000 volts is fragmented into smaller units to be appropriately consumed by the consumers as per there need.



Distribution Transformer – Even though the high voltage electricity is fragmented in smaller units at the substation to as low as 13,200 to 25,000 volts yet this is way massive as compared to the power of 120-240 volts that’s actually required at the consumer end. In order to make the giant chunk of electricity fit to use the transformer plays its role. This cylinder shaped device is fitted at the utility pole and are called pole mount transformers, for the underground lines the transformers are kept safe in the metal cases and are called pad mount transformers.

Service Drop and Utility Meter –The electrical line that runs from transformer or the utility pole to the consumers building is called the service drop. The underground line is called a service lateral. The wires usually enter the building through a weather head that protects against entry of rain and snow, and drop down though conduit to an electric meter which measures and records the power used for billing purposes, then enters the main service panel.

Power at Home – Once the Power has reached the electric meter the next step or the concluding step is the distribution of this power to each electric socket and point of the building. For this an absolute well planned and shock safe wiring of both types visible and the in wall types is involved that ensures the correct amount of electricity reaches to the adequate spot.
