ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

First of all I will like to thank Allah, who blessed us with ability and wisdom to complete
this internship. Especially thanks to IESCO who provided us an opportunity of enhancing our
professional experience and her members and especially workers so that they have cooperated
with us. I wish to express our love and gratitude to our family and friends; for their
understanding & endless love, and help they provide while preparing this report.
My report will remain incomplete if I dont mention the sincere efforts of those gentlemen who
helped and guided me in completion of my internship and this report. First of all I want to thanks
to ALLAH Almighty; I also want to thanks to my worthy teachers the main source of
enlightenment of our minds.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
An electrical grid station is an interconnection point between two transmission ring circuits,
often between two geographic regions. They might have a transformer, depending on the
possibly different voltages, so that the voltage levels can be adjusted as needed. Grid station
regulates and controls the power between interconnected transmission lines to increase the
reliability of the power system. It receive power from the power station at extremely high voltage
and then convert these voltage to some low levels and supplied electric power to the sub stations
or to other grid stations at the same voltage level according to the requirements. National grid
system of Pakistan contains an interconnected group of transmission lines in a ring system. It
covers most of the power stations of the country in this single ring and supplied electric power to
the different areas of the country. Main function of the grid station is switching between the
connected line stations and the load centers. The electric power is produce at the power station,

which are located at favorable places, generally quite away from the consumers. It is delivered to
the consumer through a large network of transmission and distribution. At many place in the line
of power system, it may be desirable and necessary to change some characteristic (e.g. Voltage,
ac to de, frequency pt. etc.) of electric supply. This is accomplished by suitable apparatus called
sub-station for example, generation voltage(11kv or 6.6kv) at the power station is stepped up to
high voltage (Say220kv to 132kv) for transmission of electric power. Similarly near the
consumers localities, the voltage may have to be stepped down to utilization level. This job
is again accomplished by suitable apparatus called sub-station.
