I used to work for the National Grid, originally part of nationalised
electricity generation and supply industry. National Grid ran the
electricity distribution part of the grid: the substations, overhead
lines and towers - never call them pylons. In the rail companies, there
was Railtrack which ran the railway infrastructure. In 2001 it ran into
financial difficulties and was replaced by a government-owned company.
There's a National Grid in the US which supplies electricity. No idea if it's related.
I've heard that there are three national level electricity grids in the U.S., East of the Rockies, West of the the Rockies, and Texas, I don't know whether any of them are called "The National Grid".
