HOW ELECTRICITY FLOWS TO ITS USER?
1.4 GENERATION, TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY
Electricity GenerationDirect
CurrentCurrent flow in one direction
Alternating CurrentConstantly
changing its flow direction
1.4 GENERATION, TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY
Examples of DC and AC generation
DC •Battery•Sun cell•DC Generator
AC •Power Generator (Power Station)
1.4 GENERATION, TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY
HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER STATION
Operation:• water flow from a dam •Turn the turbine•Rotate the generator to generate voltage
THERMAL POWER STATION
GAS POWER STATION
Operation:•Compressor - compresses a gas to produce high-pressure air (cooling part)•Combustion – burn the gas used (fuel)•Rotate the generator to generate voltage
