The standard voltage for transmission is about 115 to 1,200 kV (long-distance transmission). The extreme high voltages are measured more than 2,000 kV and it is exists between conductor and ground.
Answer for UK
The standard transmission voltages in the UK are 400 kV and 275 kV. Primary distribution voltages are 132 kV and 33 kV, and secondary distribution voltages are 11 kV and 400 V. These are all line voltages -i.e. voltages measured between line conductors.

Why are transmission voltages in multiples of 11?
Transmission voltages are in multiples of 11 to allow for 10% transmission line losses. Therefore, to obtain 100% efficiency, voltages in multiples of 11 are transmitted.
What are the voltages in secondary transmission electric lines?
A: Those voltages are called distribution voltages to differentiate from transmission voltages. And that varies from state to state and locals . Usually around 10kv to 20 kv
What is the line voltage of a 230000 kv transmission line?
Transmission and distribution voltages are normally expressed in terms of line voltages, so the answer is that the figure you quote is a line voltage. Incidentally, do you really mean 230 megavolts for a transmission voltage?? And the symbol of kilovolt is 'kV', not 'kv'.
What is the main advantage of using alternating current in the power grid?
Low loss transmission of power at high voltages for long distances then the ability to transform down to lower voltages near the point of usage, i.e. substations and pole transformers near residences.
What is service voltage?
The voltage at the service, such as a customer (your home, for example). This may be contrasted with the transmission, subtransmission, and distribution voltages used to get power from the generator to the customer.

Why 22kv 11kv 33kv 132kv 220 kv are standard transmission voltages in transmission lines why not 20kv 10kv etc?
Its just a matter of standard. In my area, for instance, we use 13.2 KV for distribution lines, and 69 KV / 138 KV for transmission lines.
How are lower voltages combined into higher voltages for transmission?
Low voltages are not 'combined into higher voltages' for transmission! The lower voltage (e.g. the voltage generated at a power station) is applied to the primary winding of a large power transformer, and the required higher transmission voltage then appears across the transformer's secondary winding. The magnitude of the secondary voltage is determined by the turns ratio of the transformer's windings.

Where is the 1990 mustang standard transmission dipstick?
There is no dipstick on the standard transmission , the fluid level is checked at the fill plug on the transmission
Where is the check hole for transmission in a 2006 standard kia rio?
A standard or manual transmission, doesn't use transmission fluid.
Why don't you step up voltage up to 900 Volt for transmission?
Voltages are nearly always stepped up for transmission, sometimes to 400,000 volts or more.
Where do you put transmission oil in on a 2003 standard?

Can two power systems having different voltages be synchronised?
yes. it is happen only for HVDC transmission .. but we can't set different voltage at A.C transmission system...
