Abstract

Although the hazards of power line magnetic fields on human health are not firmly established, mitigation of these fields is prudent. In this paper, some of the possible hazards of these magnetic fields are discussed first, and then an attempt is made to reduce these fields by proper choice of parameters of conventional three-phase power lines and by shielding confined regions such as switching stations or control rooms. Numerical procedures are developed, computations are made, and results are presented to show that techniques such as proper choice of line parameters, active cancellation, and local shielding reduce such magnetic fields to acceptable levels.
