| Substation Safety | ||||||||||||||||||
| The “Danger—Keep Out’ or “Warning—High Voltage” signs on substation fences are there for your protection. Substations convert high-voltage power from transmission lines into lower voltage electricity to supply homes and businesses? Substation equipment is always exposed to high-voltage. Some substation components could be energized at more than 100,000 volts. |
