What is the National Grid?
A National Grid is a power or energy supply system for a nation. They are called this because the network of supply lines from various generating or storage sources forms a grid in a mathematical sense, as there is usually more than one supply line to most points (or grid nodes). This allows some redundancy in the system, to allow continuous supply despite temporary breakdowns on some parts of the grid. National grids do not necessarily cover the entire country, especially in poorer or less populated areas. The United Kingdom has a grid for the supply of gas and a grid for the supply of electricity. The United States has three separate electricity grids, however they are not interconnected. Australia has a National Electricity Market (NEM) based on a transmission grid connecting the eastern states of Queensland, NSW, Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia, however the distance to Western Australia means that it operates its own South West Interconnected System (SWIS).
What is the job of a dynamo in the national grid?
The national grid is a means of distributing electricity, there is no need for a dynamo (which produces electricity) in the national grid. However, dynamos (generators) are needed in the power stations.
Why have a national grid?
So that users of electricity don't have to rely on only one local power generatiing station. A National Grid is a network of electricity supply lines from various generating stations There is usually more than one supply line to most points (or grid nodes), from more than one generating station. So, by building a National Grid, users can continue to receive power from the other power stations in the network whenever a power station or a distribution sub-station has to be taken out of service for maintenance work or when some power lines are destroyed by bad weather.
How long does it take for a hydro electric dam to generate 10000 gigawatts?
It depends on how much the grid is loaded that the dam's generators supply. The heavier the grid load the shorter the time frame to reach the load specified. Likewise the lighter the grid load the longer the time frame to reach the specified load.
