Abstract

This paper describes how a successful combination of infrastructural elements such as a Metro system and a high-voltage line in a densely populated area is possible, but actions have to be taken to ensure compatibility, in this case, a careful selection of equipment and a thorough design of the earthing system were required. The decision to combine the functions of anti-vandalism precautions and Faraday Cage proved to be very useful. A detailed analysis of the as built situation is needed as a basis of the safety case for the mass transport system. The combination of simulations and measurements on a number of locations over a large frequency bandwidth were a very powerful tool in proving the possibility of a peaceful coexistence between the metro System and a major power line in the urban area of Lisbon.
