Electricity and where it comes from Wall Chart

The Electricity and where it comes from wall chart is a clear and engaging educational poster that explains how electricity is generated and delivered from power stations to homes. It is designed to help learners understand the full journey of electricity in a simple, visual way that supports classroom learning in science and technology.

The wall chart begins by introducing key concepts such as power stations, coal, fuel, steam, turbines, generators, and substations. A step by step diagram shows how coal is mined and transported to a power station, where it is burned in a boiler to heat water and produce steam. The steam turns turbines, which transfer energy to generators to produce electricity. The chart clearly illustrates how water is recycled back into the system to be reheated, reinforcing ideas of efficiency and continuous cycles.

Further sections explain how electricity is transmitted over long distances using power lines and how substations transform the current so it can be safely used in homes, schools, and factories. The chart also includes practical household elements such as plug points, switches, wiring colours, and electricity meters, helping learners connect large scale generation to everyday use.

This wall chart works perfectly as a classroom poster or reference display. The poster combines labelled diagrams with simple explanations, making complex processes easy to understand while building strong foundational knowledge about electricity production and distribution.

Our wallcharts are engineered for durability and educational impact, designed to withstand the rigors of both classroom and home environments.
