Question

Why is electric power transmitted at high voltages?

Answer 1

Answer:

To increase the efficiency, the power is transmitted at the high volatges.

Explanation:

• The amount of current flow can be reduced by the High voltages. It is easier to insulate the line wires by the higher transmitting voltage.

• To produce the high voltages to transmit the electricity through the National Grid power lines, the Step-up Transformers are used.
