Answer
# 2
The choice of 25 kV was not based on a neat and tidy ratio 
of the supply voltage, but rather related to the efficiency 
of power transmission as a function of voltage and cost. 
For a given power level, a higher voltage allows for a 
lower current and usually better efficiency at the greater 
cost for high voltage equipment. It was found that 25kV was 
an optimal point, where an even higher voltage would still 
improve efficiency but not by a significant amount in 
relation to the higher costs incurred by the need for 
greater clearance and larger insulators.

Dear ramesh Kumar ,

i got your quest 

can you read my previous mail last 3 line.

power transmision @ 25 KV no need why because 220/66/33/11 
kV hence we can reduce the cost of conductor.but incase of 
railway you know ,if we increase the voltage level we have 
to give a clearance between the live conductor. 

i can assure you this by a video if you give your email id

regards

salah

A senior lecturer well experienced in electrical eng said 
that to avoid theft of railway equipments the use of 
standard voltage(11KV,33KV etc.) equipments is avoided. 
Only sub standard voltage levels are used..

in railways we are using dc power.transmission line are of
course ac but we convert it to dc so there is no fear of
theft of railways equipments .
