It is difficult to predict a safe distance from power lines, because the EMFs can vary greatly depending upon the situation. The best advice is to measure with a gaussmeter to determine the actual levels of magnetic fields and the distance required in your particular case. (Special note: magnetic fields are particular EMF component most often linked to health effects in the studies. They are measured with special instruments called gaussmeters.)The strongest magnetic fields are usually emitted from high voltage transmission lines — the power lines on the big, tall metal towers. To be sure that you are reducing the exposure levels to 0.5 milligauss (mG) or less, a safety distance of 700 feet may be needed.You can get gauss meter from hall road . |
