1 By David & Debbie Hibbert Electricity Distribution
2 G AS- F I R E D P O W E R S T A T I O N Electricity Distribution - David & Debbie Hibbert - Electricity is an invisible energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (electrons and protons). These form an electrical current or static charge. An electrical current is produced when electrons move along a conductor such as an electrical wire. Electrons can move back and forth (AC - Alternating Current) or in one single direction (DC - Direct Current). Both AC or DC can kill humans. Cover Photograph Debbie Hibbert 2018
3 DANGER! Electricity is invisible to detect and can kill. Never interfere with electrical devices or wiring. Only an Electrician is qualified to work with electricity.
4 Basic Electricity Distribution
5 BASIC DISTRIBUTION The production of electricity is called Generation. The transfer of electricity is called Distribution. The supply of electricity to customers is called Supply.
6 BASIC DISTRIBUTION Electricity is generated in one location and is distributed to paying customers in another location via high voltage (HV) transmission lines and low voltage (LV) distribution lines (power lines). Customers include homes, businesses and Governments who use electricity for things such as street lighting.
7 BASIC ELECTRICITY DISTRIBUTION GENERATION DISTRIBUTION SUPPLY ELECTRICITY GENERATION HIGH VOLTAGE SUBSTATION TRANSMISSION LINES across longer distances LOW VOLTAGE SUBSTATION DISTRIBUTION LINES across shorter distances SUPPLY To homes, businesses and street lights ELECTRICITY GENERATION Distribution lines carry lower voltage electricity to homes, businesses and to street lights. Smaller step-down transformers step down the electricity voltage to useable levels such as 240 volt. Step-down transformers are often found on electricity distribution poles or near power lines in large metal boxes. Transformers step up electricity voltage for transmission over long distances. These are found at substations located at power stations Step-up Transformer Transmission lines carry high-voltage (HV) electricity over long distances. Electricity travels further and faster when it has been transformed into High Voltage. Step-down Transformer Transformers step down electricity voltage to lower levels and forwards it into neighbourhoods. These are found at substations located in your neighbourhood. Homes, businesses and all levels of Government pay electricity retailers for the electricity they consume. A customer's consumption is usually measured by an electricity meter which is read remotely or by a meter reader. Illustration Cop yright David Hibb ert 2018

49 DID YOU KNOW Each Victorian Distribution Pole has a number which is unique to that pole. These numbers are shared between electricity distribution companies and are able to be used in an emergency to accurately locate that pole on a map. This means that emergency services can arrange for power company employees to be sent to the correct location.

54 DID YOU KNOW The distribution of electricity is only possible due to insulators, which do not allow electricity to pass through them. Insulators stop the electricity from moving from the wires, down the pole and into the ground.
55 I N S U L A T O R S
56 ELECTRICITY FACTS The flow of electrons along a conductor is called a current. A conductor is any material that allows electricity to pass through it. An insulator is any material that restricts the flow of electricity through it. An electric charge is measured in Amps and can be measured with Amp-meters. The pressure (potential) of an electric charge is measured in Volts and can be measured using a Volt-meter. A static charge is the build-up of electricity on a stationary surface such as a jumper, and can range to more than 3000 volts. Lightning can be over three million volts and travel at the speed of light. Electric eels produce electric shocks greater than 500 volts. Benjamin Franklin did not discover electricity as many suppose, but he did prove that electricity could produce lighting. The first battery was created by Alessandro Volta over 200 years ago and the first power station (power plant) was established in the American city of New York in 1882 by Thomas Edison. Thomas is credited with over 1000 other inventions, including electrical devices such as switches, fuses and meters for measuring electricity use. In 2017 billionaire Elon Musk (Tesla) made history by installing the worlds largest lithium-ion battery backup system (for mains power) ever built at that time. It was constructed in South Australia with an operating (holding) capacity of 100 megawatts. Elon promised he would install it in 100 days or it would be free and he did. Electricity will always try to find a path to the ground. This will include through people if they get in the way. Most people who die from electrocution when they touch a wire or a metal object that is electrified. The human heart only needs a minute amount of electric current to stop it beating.
