The term high voltage characterizes electrical circuits in which the
voltage used is the cause of particular safety concerns and
insulation requirements. High voltage is used in electrical power
distribution, in cathode ray tubes, to generate X-rays and particle
beams, to demonstrate arcing, for ignition, in photomultiplier tubes,
and high power amplifier vacuum tubes and other industrial and
scientific applications.

Two factors considered in the classification of a "high voltage" are the
possibility of causing a spark in air, and the danger of electric shock
by contact or proximity.

In electricpowertransmission engineering, high voltage


is usually considered any voltage over approximately 35,000
volts.
In digital electronics, a high voltage is the one that represents a logic
1; this may be only several hundred millivolts for some logic families.

In electric power transmission engineering this refers to


equipment designed for more than 345,000 volts between
conductors. In electronics systems, a power supply that provides
greater than 275,000 volts is known as an "EHV Power Supply". It
is often used in experiments in physics.
SAFETY:

Voltages of greater than 50 V applied across dry unbroken


human skin are capable of producing heart fibrillation if they
produce electric currents in body tissues which happen to pass
through the chest area.

The electrocution danger is mostly determined by the low


electrical conductivity of dry human skin.
(International safety symbol "Caution, risk of electric shock" (ISO 3864),
colloquially known as high voltage symbol)

Accidental contact with high voltage supplying sufficient energy will


usually result in severe injury or death.

low-energy exposure to high voltage may be harmless, such as the


spark produced in a dry climate when touching a doorknob after
walking across a carpeted floor.

The major advantages are:
 Redution in the current.

 Reduction in the losses.

 Reduction in volume of conductor material required.

 Decrease in voltage drop & improvement of voltage regulation.

 Increase in Transmission Efficiency.

 Increased power handling capacity.

The no. of circuits & the land requirement reduces as


transmission voltage increases.

The total line cost per M W per km decreases considerably with


the increase in line voltage.
The major disadvantages are:

 Corona loss & radio interference

 Line supports

 Erection difficulties

 Insulation needs

The cost of transformers, switchgear equipments & protective


equipments increases with increase in transmission line voltage.

The EHV lines generates electrostatic effects which are harmful to


human beings & animals.
High voltage is used:

 in electrical power distribution,

in cathode ray tubes, to generate X-rays and particle beams, to


demonstrate arcing, for ignition,

in photomultiplier tubes, and high power amplifier vacuum tubes


and other industrial and scientific applications.
