When the voltage of the electric current produced by a generating plant is lower than the voltage of the current carried by transmission lines?

Yes, that's because the voltage output of an alternator is restricted by the number of windings that can be slotted into its armature, restricting its output voltage to just 25-30 kV, which is far too low for transmission purposes.

How does a distance protective relay work?
The distance relay trips when a fault occurs at a distant or a remote place in the electric transmission line. There is a mechanism based on the impedance calculation of the distance of the transmission line after which it is accurately known where the fault has taken place. Thus the distance protective relay can trip the circuit & prevent the fault to be carried further and also can indicate the location of the fault.
What is the type of energy carried by an electromagnetic wave?
both electric and magnetic energy
Why inefficient braking create in Double Girder Electric overhead travelling crane?
Due to double girder the load of hoist is carried by two beams, so inefficient braking takes placd
Working principle of generator?
An electric generator is a device which converts mechanical energy to electric energy. An electric generator basically works on two principles, they are:- 1. Electro magnetic induction: This was first discovered by Michael Faraday this law states that when a electric conductor moved through a magnetic field cutting the electro magnetic waves, a electric charge is produced in the conductor. 2. Flemming's right hand rule: Place your thumb finger, index finger, and your middle finger in such a way that all the three are mutually perpendicular to each other. Here if your thumb points the thrust or force and index finger points the electro magnetic field then your middle finger points the direction of induced current. An electric generator consists of a electromagnet or a huge horse shoe magnet in which an armature is enclosed. The armature is made of copper coils. Now when the armature is rotated, it cuts the electro magnetic waves generated by the magnet and hence as a result of electro magnetic induction electricity is generated in the armature and the direction of the induced current can be found out using the Flemming's Right Hand Rule. And how the electric current produced later is stored and carried out differentiates between AC generator and DC generator
What are the advantages of using a hollow shaft in a power transmission system over a solid shaft?
Most of the force in a shaft is carried by the outer layers of the shaft, and very. very little by the center. By using a hollow shaft you get almost the same turning strength for a lot less weight and material.
What is carried by an electric current?
Electric
Where is glucose produced?
It is produced by photosynthesis .It is carried out in chloroplasts.
What does the energy carried by an electric current depend on?
The energy carried by an electric current depends on a conductor in order to flow. an Insulator disrupts the flow

What Energy that moves through an electric circuit is carried by moving'?
The answer is Charges
Energy that moves through an electric circuit is carried by moving?
The answer is Charges
What is an electric current and why is it so important?
Electric current is electric charge in motion. Most electric charge is carried by the electrons and protons within an atom and is affected by conductivity of elements ie copper.
