A quick definition of special power:

Special power refers to a type of power that is limited in its scope and authority. It can be thought of as a specific ability or privilege that someone has, such as the power to make certain decisions or take certain actions. This type of power is often defined in legal terms, such as in the context of a limited power of appointment under a power of appointment.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A special power is a type of power that is limited in scope and can only be used for specific purposes.

For example, a trust may grant a special power to a trustee to distribute a certain amount of money to a specific beneficiary for a particular purpose, such as education or medical expenses. This power is limited to that specific purpose and cannot be used for any other reason.

Another example of a special power is a limited power of appointment, which allows the holder to appoint property to a specific group of individuals or organizations, but not to themselves or their estate.

These examples illustrate how a special power is a specific and restricted type of authority that is granted for a particular purpose or situation.
