sähkönjakeluverkkoympäristöt
Sähkönjakeluverkko, meaning electricity distribution network in Finnish, refers to the system that delivers electricity from high-voltage transmission lines to individual consumers. These networks are crucial for ensuring a reliable and stable supply of power to homes, businesses, and industries. A typical sähkönjakeluverkko consists of several components, including substations, distribution lines, and service drops. Substations act as intermediary points where the voltage from the transmission system is stepped down to lower levels suitable for local distribution. Distribution lines, which can be overhead or underground, then carry this reduced voltage electricity to neighborhoods and commercial areas. Finally, service drops connect these distribution lines to individual buildings.
The operation and maintenance of sähkönjakeluverkko are managed by distribution system operators (DSOs). These DSOs are
