Common Electric Power Transmission Mechanisms: The transfer of electric power in bulk‚ especially what is done from the electric power plants to different locations is commonly referred to as the electric power transmission. There are usually huge networks of wires and cables that are setup in order to facilitate the transfer of electric power from one location to another. The network is given different names at different places but the main aim of the grid is to ensure the transfer of power

Electric Fields Lab Abstract: In this lab we will study the equipotential lines in an electric field in order to study the structure of the electric lines of force. We will plot the position of electric field lines in a given electric field using both a manual method and a computer software program. There is an electric field in any region where there is a force on an electric charge at rest. It is convenient to represent an electric field
