Moving electrical power from generating point to use point.
Electrical transmission towers are meant to hold the power lines and to carry electricity.
To support the power lines. A power line is connected from the electrical transmission tower to the transformer to help bring electricity to the generator.
The term, 'power loss', describes the rate of energy losses caused by the load current in the transmission lines
AC is generally more efficient than DC for long-distance electrical power transmission because it can be easily converted to higher voltages, reducing energy losses during transmission.
FACTS = "Flexible AC Transmission Systems".

AC is better than DC for electrical power transmission because it can be easily converted to different voltages using transformers, allowing for efficient long-distance transmission with minimal power loss. Additionally, AC can be easily generated and distributed in power grids, making it more practical for widespread use.
In an electrical power transmission system: the grid is what the feeder feed into.
Electrical transmission lines do have reactance, but it is not necessary for power to flow. In fact, the smaller the reactance, the higher the efficiency of the transmission system. Reactive power is not delivered to the load, it does no useful work, it just costs money to generate and causes heating of the conductors.
Power Systems or Transmission & Distribution
Electrical engineering is low voltage, logic circuits, communications etc. Power engineering is electrical transmission and the like.You want EE.
AC power, or alternating current power, works by constantly changing the direction of the flow of electricity. This allows for efficient transmission of electricity over long distances. The key components in an AC electrical system include a power source (such as a generator or power plant), transformers to change the voltage levels for transmission, transmission lines to carry the electricity, and distribution lines to deliver power to homes and businesses.
