Why generating power limited to 11kv?..

Answer / 7anoter4

There are generators of which supply voltage is up to 30 kV
[usually 22-23 kV for 500-800 MVA].The problem is the
insulation- will be very expensive for higher voltage-the
generator it self and the auxiliary switchgear and
transformer. A medium voltage generator and a step-up
transformer is cheaper and more convenient for maintaining.

Answer / chyray

that are no limit on generating "Voltage"

Generator are 22kv or 415v at LT side.
BTW generating power unit are "KVA" or "MVA" not voltage.
