Not only large communities but small communities as well all have power stations or using the trade vernacular, sub stations. They can be a large as one acre in area or as small as three Transformers on a platform between two power poles.
The duty of the sub station is to start reducing the voltage from the very high transmission voltage to a more manageable lower voltage. It has to be kept in mind that as the voltage is lowered the size of the equipment to handle the lower voltage becomes lighter because the insulation factor is lowered.
When the voltage leaves the substation, the utility company lines are used to transmit the lowered voltage around the community. When the voltage reaches your home it is reduced once again by the transformer on the poles along the street or in underground primary systems by the pad mount transformers that line the street close to the homes property line.

How do you use a TV?
There are controls on the TV itself (power, channels, volume) but more often a remote control is used. Power turns the TV on. Channels select the particular "station" or channel you will be watching, numerically. The volume control turns the sound higher or lower. The "mute" command on the remote turns the sound off, then back on, as you toggle it.

How does an Antarctic camp or station get power?
Each research station provides its own power source from its own power plant. Field camps use portable means for power, and primarily these are gas powered.
Which type of power station does not use steam from boiling water to turn the generators?
A photovoltaic (solar) power station does not use steam from boiling water to turn generators. Solar power stations use solar panels to convert sunlight directly into electricity using photovoltaic cells.
How do you recharge the I Tec Power Station?
To recharge the I Tec Power Station, simply connect it to a power source using the provided charging cable. Allow it to charge fully before use for optimal performance.

it con be as fuel for nuclear power station
Can you use salt water in coal powered electricity stations?
Yes - some power stations located on the coast use sea water to cool the condensers. Examples of this include:Gladstone Power Station in Queensland, AustraliaKoeberg Nuclear Power Station in South Africa
Does a hydro electric power station use waves to generate electricity?
It depends on the type of power station. Some, such as dams just use the weight of the water coming out. Tidal powerstations use the force of the tides, kind of like how windmills use wind. I, however, do not believe that there are currently any sources of hydroelectric power that use waves.
Does a wave power station use renewable energy?
Yes, a wave power station uses renewable energy, as it captures the energy from ocean waves and converts it into electricity. Waves are a natural and sustainable energy source that does not deplete with use.
How does a charging station work?
A charging station works by providing electricity to the car it is charging. There is no way for a charging station to not use electricity because the form of power it transmits is electricity.
When making vhf radio calls to nearby stations what level of transmitting power should you use?
Low power of course. You are NEAR the other station, why would you use "high" power?
