This title is incorrect it is should read 400kV Forth Crossing.

Articles in Wikipedia should be accurate and in this case the wrong voltage has been put in the title which needs correcting. Transmission system voltages vary in America and the UK and it is not right to assume that 380kV is the correct for the UK. The UK operates a 400kV and 275kV Interconnected transmission system. Evidence in the SYS (Seven Year Statement) produced by NGC is viewable on line anD the system diagrams within the SYS verifies this.

The title should in fact read "132kV Forth Crossing" as it is on a 132kV section of the National Grid! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.71.32.218 (talk) 12:28, 4 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm sure that these pylons are 275kV. Look carefully at the other pylons that they connect to - they each have 18 insulating discs. This would indicate a 275kV line, NOT 400kV or even 132kV. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.103.248.221 (talk) 02:50, 27 August 2019 (UTC)Reply

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. No support and sources are now provided that the rationale was based on a falsehood (one apparently based entirely on vandalism as no other evidence was produced). Andrewa (talk) 19:00, 26 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

400kV Forth Crossing → 132kV Forth Crossing – It's not 400kV, it's 400kV bruce89 (talk) 22:26, 18 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Source? Andy Dingley (talk) 23:11, 18 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Move to Forth Crossing? Do we have a source that shows this would not work? No need to rename if the voltage is wrong or it changes. Vegaswikian (talk) 23:26, 18 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

If we can't source the voltage, [1] I doubt if we can even demonstrate WP:N. It's a substantial aspect of the interlink. Andy Dingley (talk) 01:06, 19 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

@User:Bruce89 :: You wrote "It's not 400kV, it's 400kV" with both voltages the same. Is that a typo? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:46, 19 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
Oppose proposed move, which appears to be based on some IP vandalism and what they left the article as. Personally, I'm not sure this is even notable in the slightest, like Andy says - so I'm AfDing it. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 17:45, 19 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Closing comment: I note that the AfD appears likely to fail as well. But not a complete waste of time, the article has improved, see The Parable of the Ants. Andrewa (talk) 19:00, 26 December 2014 (UTC)Reply
