hi guys i got i a practice exam of teacher yesterday, its been really easy but i don't understand this one question.

Discuss that how kirchhoff’s voltage law is applied in the electrical transmission system?.

I know this is a easy question but i don't understand how kirchhoff’s voltage law is used here, and the textbook is not much help.

Isn't it just referring to the fact that the delivered voltage will be reduced by IR over the transmission line?
 
It may also refer to the effect of the internal resistance of any power source and the maximum power transfer theorem.
