Original General Order 95

Section II

Definitions of Terms as Used in The Rules of This Order

23.2    Voltage (or Volts) means the highest effective voltage between any two conductors of the circuit concerned except where, in certain rules, the term “ Voltage (or volts) to ground” is used.

When one circuit is directly connected to another circuit of higher voltage (as in the case of an auto transformer) both are considered as of the higher voltage unless the circuit of the lower voltage is effectively grounded from connection merely through electromagnetic or electrostatic induction.
