    A substation is an electrical system with high-voltage capacity and can be used to control the apparatus, generators, electrical circuits, etc. The Substations are mainly used to convert AC (alternating current) to DC (direct current). Some types of substations are tiny in size with an inbuilt transformer as well as related switches. Other types of substations are very huge with different types of transformers, equipment, circuit breakers, and switches.

Types of Sub Stations

The different types of substations mainly include Step-up Type Substation, Step-down Transformer, Distribution, Underground Distribution, Switchyard, Customer Substation, and System Station.

Step-up Type Substation

This type of substation gets the power supply from a near producing facility. It uses a large power transformer for enhancing the voltage level for transmitting to the remote locations. In is substation, the power transmission can be done by using a transmission bus to transmission lines.

Customer Substation

This type of substation works as the major source of power supply for one specific business client. The business case, as well as the requirements of technical, highly depends on necessities of customers.

System Stations

This substation includes the huge amount of power transfer across the station and it is called as a system station.
