“…Accordingly, the electric field strength limit value for high voltage lines and transformers is 5000V/m and the magnetic field strength limit value is 80A/m, which corresponds to approximately 1G. Electric field and magnetic field values decrease with distance from the ELF-EMF source (Raj et al, 2020). Therefore, it is accepted that being close to ELF-EMF sources will increase the health risk, and distance is considered an important variable in addition to the exposure level.…”

With the effect of developing technology, humanity is constantly exposed to more electromagnetic fields. Regional studies are gaining importance for determining the possible problems. In this study, extremely low-frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-EMF) measurements were carried out in Aydın Adnan Menderes University Central Campus in areas where university students are frequently found, at 25 randomly selected points, in the region where high voltage lines pass and around transformers, and to evaluate the awareness of university students about the ELF-EMF they are exposed to. For this purpose, the necessary magnetic field and electric field strength measurements were made and a questionnaire was applied to determine the awareness level of the students. Results were evaluated by comparing them with the ICNIRP limit values. Accordingly, it has been concluded that Aydın Adnan Menderes University Central Campus can be accepted as a relatively safe area since electromagnetic field exposure values are within the ICNIRP safe limit values. In addition, as a result of the questionnaire, it was determined that the young people were conscious to a certain extent about ELF-EMF, but they did not pay attention to protect themselves against the possible effects of ELF-EMF. It is important to make the necessary initiatives in order to raise awareness of young people on this issue.

“…In Lahore, Pakistan, as shown in Figure 1, an empty side clearance area dedicated as a route to the tower lines has been converted into a children's park and houses. This occupational problem has raised public concern about a risk-averse health effect when exposed permanently or occasionally to the electromagnetic fields (EMF) radiated from power lines [3,4]. The electromagnetic radiation from high-voltage transmission lines poses substantial health risks for anybody working outside.…”

Historical Review of Advancements in Insulated Cross-Arm Technology

et al. 2022

High-voltage transmission technology has advanced quickly with the overall development and increased use of renewable energy. More demands on the insulating system are made when high-voltage power systems evolve. One of the significant factors is the sharp rise in population density, which led to the high demand for electricity. Right-of-way infringement is a problem that frequently occurs these days. Transmission is done over a rated capacity; as a result, the transmission line heats up, the insulation ages, and the electric field becomes distorted. The insulating system is prone to fail too soon when the operating voltage inverses or when there is a significant temperature differential. Environmentally friendly insulating materials have received much attention recently. A synergistic optimisation of heat resistance properties, mechanical properties, and dielectric properties must be accomplished before these materials can be used in high-voltage transmission systems. They must also withstand harsh electrical and thermal shocks such as overvoltage and short-circuit faults. One of the developments that has become a popular research topic is the constantly evolving tower design. This review article presents advancements in cross-arm technology in high-voltage transmission systems to elaborate on the limitations and contributions of different research work.

“…I believe that shielding mostly acts by disrupting the coherence of the EMFs, therefore greatly lowering any electric or magnetic forces. Shielding has been extensively studied in the scientific literature [271][272][273][274][275][276][277]. For example, ref.…”

The roles of perinatal development, intracellular calcium [Ca2+]i, and synaptogenesis disruption are not novel in the autism/ASD literature. The focus on six mechanisms controlling synaptogenesis, each regulated by [Ca2+]i, and each aberrant in ASDs is novel. The model presented here predicts that autism epidemic causation involves central roles of both electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and chemicals. EMFs act via voltage-gated calcium channel (VGCC) activation and [Ca2+]i elevation. A total of 15 autism-implicated chemical classes each act to produce [Ca2+]i elevation, 12 acting via NMDA receptor activation, and three acting via other mechanisms. The chronic nature of ASDs is explained via NO/ONOO(-) vicious cycle elevation and MeCP2 epigenetic dysfunction. Genetic causation often also involves [Ca2+]i elevation or other impacts on synaptogenesis. The literature examining each of these steps is systematically examined and found to be consistent with predictions. Approaches that may be sed for ASD prevention or treatment are discussed in connection with this special issue: The current situation and prospects for children with ASDs. Such approaches include EMF, chemical avoidance, and using nutrients and other agents to raise the levels of Nrf2. An enriched environment, vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3s in fish oil may also be helpful.
