Answer Posted / doug
It has nothing to do with the physical tension on the wires.
Rather, it's based on old terminology. In the early
1900's, voltage was seen as "electrical pressure" or
"electrical tension." While "pressure" is no longer used to
describe voltage (outside of educational analogies), the
term "High Tension" is still used when describing wires used
to transmit at a high voltage and low current.

I have made a 3 phase thyristor full bridge rectifier. But at the moment it is working only for the half bridge operation. Both the half bridges are on operation separately but when i put it into full bridge operation the oscilloscope output is zero. I rechecked that the pulses are correct for each thyristor. what could be the possible reason for this?
