What's a Substation?

On Episode 54 of the TID Water & Power Podcast we're joined by TID Senior Electrical Engineer, Janis Scott, to discuss substations. You may have seen TID substations in your neighborhood or while driving in our area, but you may not realize the important role they play within our system. Strategically placed throughout our electric service area, substations are critical for the transmission and distribution of reliable power to more than 240,000 people in the TID service territory. On this episode we discuss how substations work, the role they serve in TID’s electrical system, and how we’re upgrading substation infrastructure to maintain reliability for our customers. Let’s get social! Facebook: @TurlockIDInstagram: @TurlockIDTwitter: @TurlockIDLinkedIn: /company/turlockidFind out more about TID at https://www.TID.org/podcast.
