Does electricity flow back to power plant?
Electricity does flow back to the power plant. This electricity is what forms the circuit needed to actually deliver the electricity to you when you need it.
Why the nuclear power plant build?
Because the power plant is the source of electricity

Does the Crist power plant produce electricity by burning coal to create steam to power a turbine?
Yes the James F. Crist Generating Plant located in Pensacola, Florida burns coal to both heat and turn water into steam which is used to turn a turbine connected to an electrical generator which produces the electricity. It's total generating capacity is 970,000 KW, and it has four (4) generating units.
Definition of load shedding?
Action to reduce the load on something, especially the interruption of an electricity supply to avoid excessive load on the generating plant.
What is the function of plant cell?
The plant cell is the basic living part of the plant. The plant cell is involved in all physical and structural activities.
How is a three phase electricity supplied to a building from the generating plant?
From the Generator Plant electricity is sent out through transmission lines. These lines then lead to different substations where the electricity is sent off to another substation for distribution or repaired (due to losses in the transmission lines). From the distribution substations electricity goes off to service buildings or homes.
When was Lake Zumbro Hydroelectric Generating Plant created?
Lake Zumbro Hydroelectric Generating Plant was created in 1919.
