What is load on high tension line if low tension line have a 20 ampere?

I think you're confusing "tension" with "voltages". Current flows in loops, so if there is no place for the current to "escape" between what you're referring to as the "high tension line" and the "low tension line", then the current will be the same in both.Another AnswerThe two lines are independent of each other, so there is no relationship between their currents.


What is the distance to be maintained between a tower with high tension wires and a house plot?

33 kV line, it should be 3.7 mtrs


What is HT and LT current and voltage?

A 'bushing' is a tubular insulator used to insulate a conductor that passes, for example, from the inside of a transformer or circuit breaker to the outside, enabling the internal components to be connected to external supply lines.High-voltage (or 'high tension') bushings have thicker walls and are longer than low-voltage bushings, as they have to withstand higher voltages.


What is the difference between HT and LT line?

ht cable that means voltage level is high , it is obvious that power is going to remain same ,so if voltage rises ,current has to be lowered .since current level is less in ht cable therefore size (dia) is less compared to l.t cable , (p=v.i),lt cable current rating is more and voltage rating is less


Why do high tension transmission wires carry electricity at high voltages?

For a given load, the higher the supply voltage, the lower the resulting load current. So, using high voltages reduce the load current which, in turn:minimise voltage drop along the line (which, at low voltages, would otherwise be enormous, rendering transmission of energy impossible).enable conductors of practical size.reduce line losses.
