They are used in high-voltage AC and DC systems, and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Typical height ranges from 15 to 55 metres (49 to 180ft), though the tallest are the 370m (1,214ft) towers of a 2700-metre-long span of Zhoushan Island Overhead Powerline Tie. In addition to steel, other materials may be used, including concrete and wood.
There are four major categories of transmission towers:suspension, terminal, tension, and transposition. Some transmission towers combine these basic functions. Transmission towers and their overhead power lines are often considered to be a form of visual pollution. Methods to reduce the visual effect include undergrounding.
Naming
"Transmission tower" is the name for the structure used in the industry in the United States, and other English-speaking countries. The term "pylon" comes from the basic shape of the structure, an obelisk-like structure which tapers toward the top, and is mostly used in the United Kingdom and parts of Europe in everyday colloquial speech. This term is used infrequently in the United States, as the word "pylon" is commonly used for many other things, mostly for traffic cones.
Britain's power grid is turning inside-out, which means pylons are about to become a lot more controversial in Britain. At the National Grid Training Centre, I climbed one. ■ The "Great Grid Upgrade": https://www.nationalgrid.com/the-great-grid-upgrade

How do Electric Transmission Lines Work?
Discussing some of the fascinating engineering that goes into overhead electric power transmission lines.
In the past, power generating plants were only able to serve their local areas. As power plants grew larger and further away from populated areas, the need for ways to efficiently move electricity over long distances has become more and more important. Stringing power lines across the landscape to connect cities to power plants may seem as simple as connecting an extension cord to an outlet, but the engineering behind these electric superhighways is more complicated and fascinating than you might think.

Explaining how the national grid works
In the UK there are over 4,474 miles of overhead electricity lines providing power to Britain's homes. Using a model I demonstrate how the National grid works.
National Grid Web site https://www.nationalgridet.com/
The Power station generates AC electricity. If this low voltage is put over the grid much of the energy is lost, but if the electricity is converted by a step-up transformer then sent across the grid and then put into a step-down transformer then little electricity is wasted.
This is based on a kit by Irwin Science Education
https://www.irwinscienceeducation.com/search/products?keywords=national+grid
And using Hornby Pylons to improve the look.

They are used in high-voltage AC and DC systems, and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Typical height ranges from 15 to 55 metres (49 to 180ft), though the tallest are the 370m (1,214ft) towers of a 2700-metre-long span of Zhoushan Island Overhead Powerline Tie. In addition to steel, other materials may be used, including concrete and wood.
There are four major categories of transmission towers:suspension, terminal, tension, and transposition. Some transmission towers combine these basic functions. Transmission towers and their overhead power lines are often considered to be a form of visual pollution. Methods to reduce the visual effect include undergrounding.
Naming
"Transmission tower" is the name for the structure used in the industry in the United States, and other English-speaking countries. The term "pylon" comes from the basic shape of the structure, an obelisk-like structure which tapers toward the top, and is mostly used in the United Kingdom and parts of Europe in everyday colloquial speech. This term is used infrequently in the United States, as the word "pylon" is commonly used for many other things, mostly for traffic cones.
