HIGH-TENSION TRANSMISSION LINE The high-tension transmission line extends from the powerhouse at Saybrook to the Guilford substation, being tappeden route at the Saybrook substation. The working potentialis 11,000 volts and the energy is transmitted three phase at 25cycles. It is a single transmijsion system, that is to say, there
