A substation is an electrical facility used to control and monitor the flow of electricity within a power system. It is typically located between the power generation source and the end user. Substations are used to step up or step down the voltage of electricity, as well as to isolate sections of the power system for maintenance or fault protection. They also provide protection against short circuits, overvoltage, and other electrical disturbances. Substations are a critical component of the electricity infrastructure, and are used in both transmission and distribution networks. They are typically owned and operated by utilities, but can also be owned by independent power producers or other entities. The substation market is highly competitive, with a range of vendors offering a variety of products and services. Major players in the market include ABB, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Eaton, and General Electric. Other notable vendors include Alstom, Mitsubishi Electric, Toshiba, and Hitachi. Show Less Read more
