    A it is fast Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B there is less wastage of energy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C it is safer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D it is cheaper Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Long distance means higher wastage of energy. So High volt direct-current (HVDC) technology is used forgreater efficiency in very long distances. Electricity is transmitted at high voltages (110 kV or above) to reduce the energy lost in long-distance transmission.
