Read a random definition: European Commission for Human Rights

A quick definition of Public Utility Holding Company Act:

The Public Utility Holding Company Act is a law that was created in 1935 to protect people who invest in utility companies and the consumers who use their services. It was made to prevent a small number of holding companies from owning most of the utilities in the country, which could lead to economic disadvantages for investors and consumers. The law also helps to prevent deceptive advertising of securities.

A more thorough explanation:

The Public Utility Holding Company Act (PUHCA) is a federal law that was enacted in 1935 to protect investors and consumers from the economic disadvantages produced by the small number of holding companies that owned most of the nation's utilities. The Act also aimed to protect the public from deceptive security advertising.

For example, if a holding company owned most of the power plants in a state, it could charge high prices for electricity, leaving consumers with no other options. PUHCA was designed to prevent this kind of monopoly and ensure fair competition in the utility industry.

Overall, PUHCA was created to protect the public from unfair practices in the utility industry and promote fair competition.
