If the termination is high voltage, where does it terminate?

The correct answer is that a high-voltage termination typically occurs at a pothead. A pothead is a specialized insulating device used to terminate high-voltage cable and connect it to overhead conductors or other equipment. It serves as a barrier that protects the cable's internal conductors and allows for safe electrical connections while also providing a degree of environmental protection.

In the context of high-voltage applications, the pothead is designed to handle the electrical and mechanical stresses that come with high-voltage lines. It is particularly important because improper termination can lead to electrical faults or safety hazards.

While there are other connection points, weather heads, and transformers involved in the high-voltage distribution system, the pothead specifically addresses the termination of the high-voltage cable itself. A connection point may refer to various junctions in the electrical system, whereas a weather head is typically associated with service entrance cables in lower voltage applications. A transformer, although crucial in voltage transformation, is not where high-voltage cables terminate but rather where voltage levels are changed for distribution.
