ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Electranet

Electranet is the electrical power network that carries electricity from power plants to homes and businesses. When you turn on your lights, your computer, your fridge, your phone charger and anything else that uses electricity, they are all connected to Electranet. Electranet is like a big highway that electricity travels on so that it can get to where it needs to go. Every power plant is connected to the network, and all the homes and businesses are too. When the power plants make electricity, it goes out through Electranet, and then flows through the wires in your walls into your home.
