  "term": "HVTL",
  "field": "Industrial and trades",
  "definition": "The infrastructure used for the bulk transmission of electrical energy from power generation plants to substations over long distances. A High-Voltage Transmission Line operates at voltages above 100 kilovolts (kV) to minimize resistive energy losses across the conductors. These lines are supported by large towers and are a principal component of the power grid, distinct from the lower-voltage distribution lines that deliver power from substations to end users.",
