Abstract

Early this year the construction of new high voltage power lines have been forced to stop due to the demonstration of residents in Kwa-chun. According to mutual agreement between the residents and Korea Electric Power Corporation, electromagnetic field(EMF) from present power lines was measured and EMF after completion of new power lines was estimated. The results show that EMF near power lines Is relatively low, and EMFnear electric substation is quite high due to the short distance between the power lines and ground. For 4 conduction 345kV line, magnetic field decreases to 3mG at the distance of 50m from the power line.
