How do nuclear power stations operate?
Basically, all power stations adopt the same method to produce electricity. A turbine is caused torotate. A generator is attached to the shaft of the turbine. As the turbine turns, electricity is produced inthe generator. This electricity is sent out through transmission lines to a distribution station of theElectricity Board.In hydroelectric power stations, the turbine is turned by flowing water. In thermal power stations,steam is produced by heating water in a furnace which burns coal or oil. In nuclear power stations, thesteam is produced by the heat generated in the fission process.

What kind of hook-ups are necessary to do cooking in concession trailers?
Concession trailers nearly always use gas for the cooking. This alleviates the need for electricity which might not be available. They usually have a generator which will either run on gasoline or the same natural gas which you use to cook with.The generators would basically charge a number of batteries which would provide the electricity needed if external electricity wasn't available.
