Hi Bob,
Your transmission lines are ONLY 330KV??? That's PUNY power! The lines
from the generator are typically 150KV to 250KV for area distribution
while the transmission lines that connect the southeast Pennsylvania SEPA
grid to the Northeast (NJ NY LI) grid carry up to 1.5MV. I have seen them
up close and personal so I can tell you it's a bit un nerving standing
near them with my body hairs prickling and hearing all that snapping and
hissing overhead!
You deak in kilovolts, we deal in MEGAVOLTS! That's POWER baby!
