Cars and trucks race down the highway, turn off into town, wait at traffic lights and move slowly through side streets. Electricity flows in a similar way -- from the power plant via high voltage lines to transformer substations. The flow is controlled as if by traffic lights.

Thanks to this highly complex infrastructure, the electricity customer can use all kinds of electrical devices just by switching them on.
