How many kVA are *you* switching? How many kVA are running through those big 765kv lines? This is what a *circuit breaker* looks like at those sizes: http://www.hhi.co.kr/english/IndustrialPowerSystem/product/highvoltage/product2-7.html 8000 amps at 765kv. And that's just to *break* the circuit without vaporizing itself in the process.
