Electricity is transported from power plants to populated areas through a system called the power grid. This journey begins at the power plant, where electricity is generated. To travel efficiently over long distances, the voltage is increased, or "stepped up," at a substation. It then travels through high-voltage overhead or underground transmission lines. Near its destination, the voltage is "stepped down" at another substation before being distributed to homes and businesses. Our company provides the specialized overhead and underground equipment needed to build and maintain this critical infrastructure.
