TRANSMISSION

A transmission system
delivers electrical energy from the generating station to the
transmission customer and the distribution system.
The transmission system is a complicated networked system that
connects generating stations to substations. Substations
distribute electricity to customers. Northeast
Texas Power, Ltd. maintains, repairs, and replaces the portion
of a transmission system which consists of:
- Wood poles and steel structures - Support
the conductors and the power line,
running between substations
- Substations - Contain protection, metering, and communications
equipment, and equipment that transforms power to different
voltages, and/or voltage control equipment
- Individual generators within a station, their associated
systems, voltage control, turbines,
and governors, protective
equipment, and the auxiliary loads that keep generators
operating
A transmission system is designed
and operated to transfer large quantities of electricity reliably,
safely, and efficiently.
When
the system goes down due to storms, equipment failure, wear
and tear, or any other reason, the electric utility's responsibility
is to get the system back up and working properly as quickly
and efficiently as possible. That's why it makes sense
to call Northeast Texas Power, Ltd. We understand the
importance of restoring power to the general public as quickly
as possible. Our experienced reliable response team is
ready 24 hours a day 7 days a week to handle your outages and
maintenance quickly, efficiently, and safely.
