Question

How does current reach from electricity production centre to the houses?

Answer 1

Transformers

he the current to reach

Answer 2

Answer:

The electricity is generated at the power station is made to increase its voltage through the transformers in order to carry it over long distances through the transmission lines and reaches to the houses.

Explanation:

• This current is then captured by the large power towers spread across at definite distances.
• From these towers, electricity reaches the substations through the transmission lines.
• The high voltage of the current is lowered in the substation to be delivered through the smaller power lines.
• Smaller transformers kept across the cities and towns further reduce the voltage of the current and then supplies to the houses and buildings in the required voltage through the power lines.
• This current reaches the individual electric meter boxes kept in the houses and buildings from which it is passed to all parts of the house through wiring system.
