It is fed to the HT input of all the pole transformers.

When there are 3 phases available that sometimes is
the case. Look closely
at the pole transformers and in most cases when there are 2 or more
transformers mounted on 1 pole there is only 1 HT input to each transformer.
If it were between phases there would be 2 HT inputs.
How can the transformer possibly work if the primary is only connected to one
HT line? What is the other side of the primary connected to? Where's the
return path?
