Abstract :
INTEGRATION OF high-voltage systems in Great Britain has proceeded in two well-defined stages. The first occurred about 1930, with the establishment of the Central Electricity Board and the construction of a 132-kv national grid system. The second stage is now in progress, with the construction of a new 275/300-kv super grid by the British Electricity Authority (B.E.A.), set up under the Electricity Act of 1947.
