Why high voltage lines (overhead ) are called high tension
lines?

Answer Posted / ibrahim s

Normally the overhead cable are highly tensioned at both
ends(between the transmission tower) to avoid induction loss
(if transmission line is curve shaped, Power loss can
happen).
So that its called High tensioned Lines

Note:
for free flow of electron required stright path.
