Transmission lines are a high voltage line that carries electricity from power plants to the substations. From there, electricity is further distributed to various areas for different purposes. Transmission lines and distribution lines make up the entire electricity grid, which consists of hundreds of thousands miles of high-voltage power lines and millions of miles of low-voltage power lines. Distribution transformers connect thousands of power plants to hundreds of millions of electricity customers all across the country.
