New York City, electric power is transmitted by high voltage cables encased in steel pipelines to electric substations where the power is converted to low voltage feeders supplying about 55 distribution networks.
On Thursday, the agency's fisheries and ecology team isolated a 100m area of the river next to Ravensbury Park in Merton and used equipment which generated low voltage electric currents to check how many fish survived.

The way he embraced so startlingly, electric with the voltage of life, the beings created only in words by Shakespeare, Strindberg, Brecht, Beckett oh, you name them, from the volumes holding down the letter telling of that Saturday.
ABB's best trick is its ability to take electric current of any voltage and frequency, chop it up into tiny bits and reassemble it into the form needed.
Severinsky's bright idea was to run the electric motor on a high voltage--say, 40 times the 14 volts that is standard for the electrical system in a gasoline car with a 12-volt battery.
This concentrates the electric field and minimises the required voltage.
The maximum electric load potential of the high-voltage battery is 480 kW, which is an absolute best value in the automotive sector.

Gourmet or premium power refers to highly-reliable electric power supplies that deliver service within a narrow voltage range and without harmonic distortions.
Phasor measurements track the amount of stress placed on the electric power grid by providing granular data about frequency, voltage and phase angle conditions in real-time.
Now there is growing concern that a really big storm might collapse much of the global electric grid, particularly in places with long high-voltage transmission lines such as Australia, Canada, China and the United States.
