Reasons why it is preferred to transmit power over long distances using a high voltage and low current

Answers

Answered by Herothegamer

Answer:

The lower current that accompanies high voltage transmission reduces resistance in the conductors as electricity flows along the cables. This means that thin, light-weight wires can be used in long-distance transmission.

Hope it helps
