    Substations are electrical installations that control power levels for transmission and distribution. They transform voltage from high to low levels and vice versa using transformers. Power may flow through several substations at different voltage levels between the generating station and consumer. Substations are classified based on voltage levels as low voltage, medium voltage, high voltage, extra high voltage, and ultra high voltage. They are also classified based on being AC or DC, their location as indoor or outdoor, and their configuration as conventional air insulated, gas insulated, or composite.

    SUBSTATION

    The Substation is an Electrical installation where power is controlled at
    different voltage levels for transmission & distribution purpose. Substations
    transform voltage from high to low, or the reverse using transformers.
    Between the generating station and consumer, electric power may flow
    through several substations at different voltage levels. Substations are named
    as 220/132kV Substation, 400/220kv Substation, 132/33kV Substation.

    CLASSIFICATION OF VOLTAGE LEVELS:

    As per IE Rule 2(1)(a) voltage levels are classified as (with latest amendments)

    TYPE VOLTAGE
    Low voltage 250/415 V
    Medium voltage 650V, 3.3kV, 6.6kV
    High voltage 11kV, 33kV, 66kV
    Extra high voltage 110kV, 132kV,220kV
    Ultra high voltage 400kV,800kV AC & 500kV HVDC

    SUBSTATIONS ARE CLASSIFIED AS BELOW:

    BASED ON VOLTAGE LEVELS:
    A.C. Substation: EHV, HV, MV, LV
    D.C. Substation: HVDC Substation

    BASED ON LOCATION:
    Out Door
    Indoor

    BASED ON CONFIGURATION:
    Conventional air insulated outdoor substation or
    Gas Insulated Substation (GIS)
    Composite substations having combination of the above two
