Electricity sub-station

A substation reduces electricity voltage so that it is easier and safer to deliver electricity to homes and business. It is usually protected by a strong fence. It will have an unambiguous yellow and black ‘danger of death’ sign prominently visible. They can serve an area of housing, commercial or industrial units. Large secondary schools, hospitals and military bases can have their own sub station.
