I don't agree.

Imagine you find several 90 kV and 63 kV lines in such a substation
connected with busbars.
Then, the operator can use this stuff to make power transit between lines
of a given power level and use transformers to transit between both 90 kV
and 63 kV.

That's transmission and not distribution obviously and it's below 100 kV.

Furthermore, we can't qualify of "distribution" voltage levels which accept
industrial client feeding : CERN is connected to French 400 kV (and I hope
everyone will agree 400 kV isn't distribution).


As far as i know, in France :

400 kV / 225 kV : national transport (RTE)
150 kV, 90 kV, 63 kV : regional transport (RTE)
20 kV, 400 V : local distribution (ERDF)
