In electric power Transmission and Distribution, power is transmitted at a voltage level of 400 kV to reduce losses and then at the substation, it is stepped down to 132 kV at which electric power is transmitted and then at substation it is again stepped...

The ratio of the inductance L to the resistance R of a coil remains constant for different winding arrangements in the same volume and shape. It makes sense to define this value as a figure of merit to distinguish different coil structures. The quality factor...
