Spanish term or phrase: acometida en B.T
Acometida I take to be a connection but B.T? Is that an international term or not? Thanks

There is a full translation:

"Supply service line connection". But in this case you should add LV, thus:

Not sure (not enough context) as to whether "BT" in the original is superfluous. If this is a normal "acometida", it should always be in BT (or LV), which is what ALL domestic consumers get. Of course, big factories and even big shops might get their supply in "media tensión", and have a transformer "in-house".
