This report is an outcome of the contributions made by some

of the

peoples. Therefore it is my sole responsibility to acknowledge them. I am

greatly thankful to the sincere

efforts made by Mr. R.B.Singh, J.E.

(maintenance) without whom this project would be abstract. I also thank

the staff

of 220kV Grid Transmission Substation, Naubasta-Kanpur

who

took out there precious time to tell me about the various equipments. My
special thanks is dedicated to Mr. Vijay Kumar, J.E. (maintenance).
I would also mention the outstanding support given by my
paved the way for me to overcome with this project report.

Conclusion
Now I have studied a lot about the electrical
transmission system. One must have never thought that
so many things are required for just switching on a
television or a refrigerator or say an electric trimmer. The
three wing of electrical system viz.
Generation,
transmission and distribution are connected to each
other and that too very perfectly. Here man and electricity
work as if they are a family. Lots of labour, capital and
infrastructure is involved in the system just to have a
single phase,220V,50Hz power supply at our houses.
