transmission is providing a medium for the electricity from the generating stations to the areas where they are to be consumed. eg from Bhakara to New Delhi.
distribution is after receiving at the landing station further providing it ti the customers.
power grid corpn is involved in transmission of electricity. & BEST or rajdhani power is involved in distribution.

Transmission is that amount of electricity produced by the turbine in an electrical generating station, either by use of fossil fuels or hydrogeneration onto the distribution system. Distribution is the movement of that electricity through power lines, substations and small transformers to the consumer.

Transmission of electricity is providing a medium for the power generation station from the to the areas where they are to be consumed. for example from Sabarmati Power Generation Station to Ahmadabad and Gandhinagar. It is usually high voltage Three Phase Power Transmission.
Distribution is after receiving at the landing station further providing it to the customers - to each and every house, industry, Municipal road and traffic light systems etc. For most of the huse hold / civil requirements, single phase power is supplied, and therefore it requires to balance the distribution with respect to three phase. Some might be getting from R Phase, some from Y Phase and some from B phase.

A quick google search would provide you with the answers to most of these questions but to start you off I can tell you that transformers are most often used for simple voltage adjustments i.e. a transformer can be used to convert the mains voltage in your house (240V) down to a more suitable voltage that won't cause any damage to your electronics (Xbox's have these). You won't learn quickly unless you find these out for yourself but if you're having particular difficulties with any of them just add me and I can give you some help.

It's semantic, depends where you draw the line.
Transmission is channeling the power from place to place, distribution is dividing the flow up and channeling it to the end users.
Where in the grid you draw the line is problematical.

transmission gets it to the place where you need it....distribution splits the big lines out to small lines which distributes to smaller lines...which distributes to smaller lines...which distributes to little wires....which distributes to productive energy whether lighting, mechanical, or thermal
