Why only mesh earthing is used in G.S.S.?..

Answer / ajay singh bika

In GSS there is high fault current flows to the earth so
that there may be a potental difference due to this at
ground..... so if a person stands at the surface of a
substation he can get shocked due to this potential
difference so by this mesh earthing the potential can be
spread out whole the substation surface and this surface
become equipotential.

There is no such thing as a Generator. All power generating devices are Alternator since both generate alternating current since this is the only way electrical power can be generated. In "generators" the alternating current is converted into DC inside the housing of the "generator" in order to give out DC Do you agree? If not please educate me. How else is DC generated if not like above?

Give atleast 20 alternating current apparatus and devices.
