All the high voltage stuff I've done has been underground to pad mounted transformers. It's been 30 years since I was out in The Marshall Islands running high voltage power. We used 15kv rated cable even though the system was 4160. The largest island was only 2.5 miles long and it was all coral we had to dig up to lay our 4" PVC conduit. I don't remember how many conduits we laid in the trenches but we added extra empty 4" PVC for future expansion. I think one of the digging crews found the body of a Japanese soldier from the time the Japanese military were on the island during WWII. There was quite a battle there when American forces took the island. There is a lot of history to see at the Kwajalein Atoll. Every time a crew started digging, they found some of it. ヽ(ヅ)ノ [8~{} Uncle Sea Monster |

Even dogs' cocks cannot be as weird as you are, Birdbrain! -- More of Birdbrain Macaw's (now "James Wilkinson" LOL) deep "thinking": "If cyclists used their bikes naked, more people could get erections and we wouldn't hate them so much."

Which Indians in call centres don't understand English, Birdbrain? -- Birdbrain Macaw's (now "James Wilkinson" LOL) sociopathic "mind" at work: "I treat cyclists wearing the same clothes as pedestrians as pedestrians."

I don't know about skyscrapers in the very large cities but I'd imagine there are transformers for every floor or every several floors. I'd have to do some research on the design of their power distribution systems to educate myself. We hear a 60hz buzz in our heads where you folks have a 50hz buzz between your ears. They should have made it something like 15Hz so we can't hear it. Once I went to see a movie called "Battlestar Galactica" because they wore showing it in something called "Sensurround" and I wanted to find out what that was. It's infrasonics, sound you can't hear because of the low frequency but with enough power you feel it. Also, 15Hz transformers would need to be bigger.
