If lines/circuits are operated at different voltages, which one will serve the transformer(s) exactly ? Furthermore, even if a single line is supported by the pole, which side of the transformer is connected to it ? I'm thinking of a pole carrying a "low voltage" line used for distribution, hosting a transformer at the top of it and the transformer gets its power from an underground "high voltage" cable rising up on the pole itself. Then you'll need to know the voltages of both cable and line AND the voltages of transformer's sides to say the overhead "low voltage" line is fed wheter by the primary or secondary interface. It's a bit complex and I see no redundancy here. > > Switches ... usually used for isolation. > Can you elaborate a bit more please ?
