>11Kv?  Isn't that a bit dangerous?

Yup.  You should see what happens when the 11kV sub-feeder "leaks" into a
220V line.  I had a UPS that went "bang" in a big way, along with almost
every other electrical appliance (a catenary cable broke & dropped the 11kV
lines onto the 380V lines that were strung along the same pole).

Doesn't happen often, but when it does ....

There are also case where poor folk "steal" power with illegal taps.
Sometimes they can't tell the difference ...
