Cassell Junction Co-op Substation - Operational 69 kV Substation in the United States

Cassell Junction Co-op Substation is an operational electrical substation located in the United States, with coordinates 40.015250, -81.661195. The facility operates at a voltage of 69 kV, which is typical for sub-transmission or distribution-level substations, serving to step down power for local distribution networks. The substation operates under the regulatory framework of the United States, which includes NERC reliability standards and FERC oversight for transmission-level assets. The facility is part of the broader electrical infrastructure that ensures grid stability and power delivery to surrounding communities. As a substation, Cassell Junction Co-op Substation contributes to the reliability and resilience of the local power grid. Its operational status indicates ongoing service, supporting electricity distribution and helping to maintain voltage levels within safe and efficient parameters for end users.

The substation is located in a rural area of Ohio, near Cassell Station. The surrounding environment is primarily agricultural and residential, with low population density. The 69 kV voltage level suggests it serves local distribution needs, with minimal direct environmental impact beyond land use and potential electromagnetic fields. Typical substations of this scale have moderate environmental considerations related to maintenance and potential oil leaks from transformers.
