Power plant – generates electricity

Transmission line – “highway” for transporting very

high voltage

Substation – Lowers voltage

Distribution line – “roads” for

transporting high voltage

Transformer – Lowers voltage to

go to house

OGE is required to maintain the voltage within a certain range up to our

customer’s meter. Voltage starts out high at the substation then

decreases as you move toward the end of the circuit.

OGE uses voltage regulators and capacitors to keep the voltage within range. Also

moving load off of a circuit will improve the voltage.
