What is the difference between electricity transmission and distribution?

2025-08-09

The electrical grid can be thought of as a road system for power. Transmission is like the major motorways, moving large amounts of electricity at very high voltages from power plants to regional substations. This network consists of large towers and high-voltage lines. Distribution, on the other hand, is like the local roads, taking the electricity from the substations and delivering it to homes and businesses at much lower, safer voltages. Ningbo Changshi specializes in manufacturing a wide range of tools and equipment for both the transmission and distribution stages of power line projects, providing comprehensive solutions for the entire grid.
