TDSP
The TDSP or Wires Companies transmits and delivers the electricity to your home or business along the poles and wires. This company is responsible for maintenance and repair of these poles and wires and regulated by the PUC. They are responsible for carrying the electricity to a transformer via cables where it is converted from low voltage to high voltage for more efficient transmission over long distances. High voltage transmission lines carry the electricity over long distances to substations at or near the point of use. Substations convert the electricity from high voltage to lower voltage electricity which is then moved through distribution lines to consumers by the Transmission and Distribution Providers.
