Is the substation separate from the power and illumination transformer?
The power and illumination of the substation are all used on a transformer, which is separated by power and lighting by the station screen of this transformer.
There is only bus in the substation, and the station is connected with the transformer from the bus. If there is no electricity even in the bus, then the substation should not be considered active.
The power and lighting power supply in the substation need not be separated. In a large capacity power plant, the lighting can be electrically powered to ensure that the generator is stopped. The lighting source is often separated from the lighting transformer and powered by other power supplies.
