This is a misunderstanding due to a mix-up of terminology. In power distribution "high voltage" means >50-100 kV. Extra high voltage is everything >200 kV. Low

This is a misunderstanding due to a mix-up of terminology.
In power distribution "high voltage" means >50-100 kV. Extra high voltage is everything >200 kV. Low voltage is everything below <50 kV.
Low voltage is what is delivered to neighbourhoods and then stepped down to the end user voltages (230 / 400 V). The power lines that run in streets are never high voltage in the sense utilities use that word.
