Dear Friends. 1. Power Lines Electromagnetic Radiation can cause Brain Cancer, Leukemia (especialy affecting children), Breast Cancer, Birth defects & reproductive problems, Fatigue, depression,blood dieseases, harmonal imbalances, heart dieseases and sleeping disorders etc. 2 The high levels of EMF also seriously disturb the performance of Monitors, Computers & other modern communication equipment. 3. The best way of ensuring safety is to measure the level of EMF with "Gauss Meter" If the reading of Gauss Meter is 0.5 mG the level of EMF from the Power Line (or any other source) is beyound safe limits & not acceptable. 4. Most of the Transmission Lines except a few Extra High Voltage lines carrying high currents cause an EMF level of 0.3 mG at a distance of 400 meters. So as a thumb rule we can say "It is safe to live at a distance of 400 meters from the Power Lines". 5. In industrial areas Max. Level of EMF is in the day time at peak load hours & in residential areas it is in the early hours of the day. 6. Transmission lines also cause "Noise Pollution" due to Audable Corona (Humming Sound) 7. They also have Visual Corona (Blue Light around the phase conductors) usually visible in the night. Regards. |
