Before Power Distribution
• Technology developed 50-100 years before power distribution to the public:• Batteries• Arc Lights• Incandescent Lights• Electric Motors (vacuum pump)

DC vs. AC
• Direct current (DC)– DC machines– Batteries– Fuel cells– Photovoltaic
• Alternating current (AC)– AC machines– Power electronic converters– 60 Hertz in the US

Brush Electric Company
• HVDC distribution that transmitted over longer distances to one customer• Niagara Falls to Buffalo
• Simple distribution system that could only power arc lights

Edison Electric Company
• Low voltage direct current system• Better lightbulb• Safer• Short range use• Powered Small DC motors
• Features added• Electric meter• Distribution System

Westinghouse Electric Company
• Low and High Voltage Alternating Current system• Long distance transmission• Able to change voltage• Compatible with Edison Bulb• Developed Westinghouse Bulb• Own patent for AC Motor

Grid Expansion
• Grid distribution networks expanded until around 1915.• The smaller grids slowly integrated into one system by
connecting the distribution grids by transmission lines.•More transmission lines were added during the 1930s as part
of the Depression projects and rural areas received electricity• By the 1960’s the gird was largely intact and upgrades
occurred to make the lines more reliable.

Major Power Grid Components
• Generation
• Transmission– 115 kVolts 765 kVolts
– Networked
• Distribution– 4 kVolts to 69 kVolts
– Radial
• Load

Major Power Grid Components
All power systems have three major components: Generation, Transmission/Distribution, and Load.
Generation: Creates electric power.
Transmission/Distribution: Transmits electric power from generation to load.
Load: Consumes electric power.

Transmission & Distribution
Transmission Distributionnetworked connections radial connections
power can be supplied from multiple sources
power moves in one direction only
typically higher voltages, above 100 kV
typically lower voltages, below 100 kV
mostly overhead, with some underground in urban areas
most new construction is underground, especially in
suburban and urban locationsoften source of large-scale
blackoutsthe source of most blackouts,
but these are local

Synchronism
16
Since most generation is from synchronous machines, the interconnected power system swings together.
