A substation is an indoor or outdoor location in which are located Transformers, switchgear, busbar systems, and protection equipment. It's where transmission or distribution voltages are stepped up or stepped down, transmission/distribution lines are interconnected, and protected by circuit breakers that are operated by protective relays that monitor the status of the various lines. Generation doesn't take place in substations, but in power stations.
