Electricity is generated from generation stations such as HEP (Hydro-Electric Power), Solar, Geothermal e.t.c and are interconnected together by the grid system. Generally, electricity used in homes comes from a very far distance and involve a whole lot of process before it finally gets to your home. This process can be classified into 3 main parts which are: 1. Generation 2. Transmission 3. Distribution 1. Generation It is the root process where electricity is been generated. This generation of electricity comes from various source such as: Hydro-Electricity Power (HEP), Geothermal, Natural Gas, Biodiesel e.t.c. The generation of electricity is usually at a voltage level of 16kV at a frequency of 50Hz and step up by the station transformer to a voltage level of 330kV and because of the fact that its been generated from different location and source there is therefore need of interconnecting all this power station together to a network known as the natio
