This generated electrical energy is sent through a network of power lines to the places of consumption. At the output of the power plant, the voltage is 110 kV, 220 kV or 380 kV; that is to say, by means of a transformer a high voltage is obtained, so that the losses in the transport are minimal. Then, in the places of consumption, it is transformed again, through other transformers, to the known low voltages of 380 V and 220 V, which are what we usually use in our equipment and appliances.
