The street lamps connect to the power grid, and then the transformer and distribution box change it into suitable one.

Through the urban power grid: The street lamps are connected to the distribution box, the transformer, and the cables. The power comes from the urban power grid.
Transformer: The transformer lowers the high voltage and current to make them suitable for the street lamps.
Distribution box: The distribution box divides the total electrivity evenly among each street lamp.
