Power substation steps down transmission level voltages (such as 66,132 KV) to distribution level voltages (such as 11 KV). A substation may have one or more step-down transformers and it connects a consumer to the network.

 

Power Grid Station is an interconnection point between two transmission line circuits (Rings), those are serving/connecting two geographic regions. Power Grid Station has transformer depending on the possibly different voltages, so that the voltage levels can be adjusted as needed.
