Elektritranspordivõrk
Elektritranspordivõrk, often referred to as the electricity transmission network, is the part of the electrical grid that transports electricity from power generation facilities to distribution substations. These networks typically operate at high voltages, ranging from 69 kV to 765 kV, to minimize energy loss over long distances. The primary components of an elektritranspordivõrk include transmission lines, substations, and transformers. Transmission lines, usually carried on large towers, are the physical conduits that carry the electricity. Substations are crucial nodes that step down the high voltage for further transmission or distribution and also act as switching points. Transformers are essential devices within substations that change voltage levels.
The main purpose of an elektritranspordivõrk is to reliably and efficiently move large amounts of electrical
