INTRODUCTION Electricity is a form of energy. It is useful and best form of energy because: It is readily converted into other forms of energy. It is easily transported and can be controlled very precisely. It is usually readily available. AIM AND OBJECTIVES AIM: To provide students with the basic knowledge of electrical power system. OBJECTIVES: (i) Describe the concept of power system’s operation. (ii) Explain a. c. power system and its components. (iii) Interrelates Nigerian Electric power structure vis_a_vis other countries.
ELECTRIC POWER NETWORK The “power GENERATION system” or the “grid” is used to describe the. This complete network structure. This consists of the following: is concerned withi. Energy generation, source transmission, ii. A prime mover Transmission is defined the transportation distribution and utilization ofasconveyance electrical energy. Distribution deals with the of iii. Generator of bulk supplies of electric power from one transmitted power by iv. Transformer or more generating sitesmeans to market of loadlower centers. voltages. This is usually done by means of high voltage. TRANSMISSION DISTRIBUTION
