Burna Substation - Operational 69 kV Electrical Substation in the United States

Burna Substation is an operational electrical substation located in the United States, with coordinates 37.245850, -88.361925. The facility operates at a voltage level of 69 kV, which is typical for sub-transmission or distribution substations, serving to step down power for local distribution networks. The substation operates under the regulatory framework of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), which enforce reliability standards for the bulk power system. As a 69 kV facility, it is part of the interconnected grid that ensures stable electricity supply to residential, commercial, and industrial consumers in the region. This substation contributes to the electrical infrastructure of the United States by facilitating voltage regulation and power flow control. Its operational status indicates ongoing service to the local grid, supporting community energy needs and enhancing grid resilience in the area.

The substation is located in a rural or semi-rural area of the United States, where electrical infrastructure supports agricultural and small community loads. The 69 kV voltage level suggests it is a distribution substation, which typically has lower environmental impact compared to high-voltage transmission lines. Local environmental considerations include land use compatibility and electromagnetic field management, though specific site conditions are not detailed.
