Generation and used of the electricity

Generation and used of the electricity

Generation and used of the electricity

(OP)

I'm looking for a picture of the process of the electricity from the generation to the final user including: generator, transformers, line transmisions, substations, distribucion, and low voltage (209, 120V)  

Where could I find it?

Thanks.

RE: Generation and used of the electricity

Try a Google search on "figure utility transmission generator transformer substation distribution"

One result that popped up from that search was:
http://www.cutler-hammer.eaton.com/unsecure/html/101basics/Module03/Output/ElectricalDistributionSystem.html
(see Figure 5)

Howstuffworks.com is another great site.  Here's two links there:
http://www.howstuffworks.com/power.htm
http://www.howstuffworks.com/category.htm?cat=Powr

That's the last free web search you get out of me, though.  Spend two minutes on Goolgle before posting questions like this next time.
