The electromagnetic interferance caused by high voltage power lines along the...IJECEIAES
The identification of risks linked to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in the electric railway is a major concern in identifying EMC problems and analyzing the unintentional various external disturbing sources as well as the probability of occurrence of interference, the level of interference along the railway system. The purpose of this analysis is to determine the electromagnetic interaction coupling generated by the high voltage (HV) lines located along the railway line by analyzing the voltage induced in the signaling transmission cables such as the european rail traffic management system/european train control system (ERTMS/ETCS) through the multi-conductor transmission line (MTL) theory which may have an impact on the transmitting information. Dubanton method and approximate calculation will be applied and simulated through COMSOL Multiphysics tool in order to analyze if the protection distance and coupling conditions are respected by the railway standards.
Electromagnetic waves are an essential aspect of the study of physics, particularly in the realm of electromagnetism. These waves are characterized by their ability to propagate through space without the need for a medium, unlike mechanical waves such as sound waves. At the heart of electromagnetic theory lies the groundbreaking work of James Clerk Maxwell, who formulated a set of equations that unified the phenomena of electricity and magnetism.
The main stake is to detect a defective component or likely to become it during manufacture or inservice inspections, while improving control productivity. In this context, we develop a simulation tool of EC fastened structures testing, integrated to the ANSYS platform, aimed at conceiving testing methods, optimizing and qualifying it. The finite element method has been chosen, it is suitable for this type of problem. Various configurations have been considered for the inspection of a target with a defect in different thicknesses. Due to the impossibility to detect a defect located at a distance much greater than the skin depth δ. Indeed, the eddy currents amplitude are less than 95% of the maximum amplitude beyond a depth greater than 3 δ. We are interested in the detection of defects located at depths higher to three times the skin depth.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.

Abstract: The main objective of this paper is to calculate the electric field and the magnetic field under high
voltage transmission lines. The magnetic fields are produced whenever there is flow of electrons or whenever
the electrical equipment is in use. The electric field is produced due to the presence of voltage. The electric field
will exist no matter whether the equipment is in use or not. The transmission lines are considered as one of the
primary source of these fields in the environment. These fields under high voltage transmission lines cause
hazards to living organisms through resistive, inductive and capacitive couplings. So it is necessary to compute
these fields under high voltage transmission lines to understand the safer operating practices. The proposed
study is the theoretical computation of electric and magnetic field using MATLAB software package.
Keywords: Electric field, High voltage transmission line, Magnetic field, Matlab, Safer operating practices.
I. Introduction
The electrical energy becomes most essential part of our life. India is the fifth largest electrical energy
producer and consumer in the world. This energy is generated far away from utilizing stations and the high
voltage power lines are used to transport electrical energy from generating station to demand point. The
generating power and utilizing power never gets equal, as a part of generating power disappears as transmission
losses. According to the world resource institute, the power loss in India is estimated to be 27%, which is
highest in the world. There will be associated low frequency electric and magnetic fields around these lines as
the current, which produces circulating magnetic field measured in milligauss (mG) and the high voltage, which
produces electric field measured in kilovolts per meter (kV/m).
The magnetic field cannot be shielded, so as a result even underground distribution lines produce
EMFs (Electric and Magnetic fields). Whereas, the electric field can be shielded by tress, fence, concrete
buildings etc. In case of single phase AC source, the field at any point oscillates forward and backward through
straight line, whereas in case of three phase supply, the field actually traces elliptical path. The EMFs are
usually stronger near the conductors and diminishes as the distance increases. These fields interact with ground
objects through resistive, inductive and capacitive couplings [1].
The static charges are induced on ungrounded conducting objects through capacitive coupling.
Circulating currents will be induced on the conducting objects through inductive coupling. Many studies revels
that the micro current induced on human body cause serious health issues with respect to field strength and time
period of exposure to the field. The maximum acceptable exposure to magnetic field for small living organisms
is 0.04 T and for human about (4-100) T [2].
EMFs Strength varies based on the following factors,
1. Height of the conductors above the ground.
2. Radius of the conductors.
3. Phase symmetry of the conductors.
4. Position of the phase conductor with respect to other conductors.
5. Position of measuring point with respect to conductor positions.
6. The electric field mainly depends on the magnitude of the conductor voltage and the magnetic field depends
on the magnitude of the conductor current.
II. Electric Field Calculation
The voltage in transmission line conductors produce electric field in the region of space between the
conductors and between the conductors and ground. The electric field is a vector quantity, it has both magnitude
and direction. The electric field at the surface of conductors is responsible for corona effect, which is the
ionization of air between the line conductors due to the existence of very strong electric field between them and
results in audible noise along with electromagnetic radiation and visible light. Modeling of electric field in the
proposed methodology is based on the method of images technique [3], which is a basic problem solving
technique in electrostatic engineering. According to the principle of method of images, if an infinitely grounded
conducting plane have a charge ‘+q’ at a distance ‘r’ above the plane, then there will be fictitious charge ‘–q’ at
2. Modelling Of Electric And Magnetic Fields Under High Voltage Ac Transmission Line
DOI: 10.9790/1676-1103042431 www.iosrjournals.org 25 | Page
the same distance ‘r’ under the plane. The potential at any point ‘p’ in two dimensional plane will be equal to
algebraic sum of potential due to these two charges. To compute electric and magnetic field around transmission
line some of important parameters are needed such as voltage, current, geometric configuration of conductors.
The electric field at any point is equal to force acting on unit positive charge at that point, and the work done in
moving the charge between two points is the electric potential difference ∆V.
E is related to ∆V as,
E=-∆V (1)
E is called as gradient of V.

From equation (2), E =

Where,
r is the unit directional vector.
Since, the conductor characteristics such as position of conductors with respect to other conductors, the
height of conductors above the ground level, radius of the conductors are known, it is necessary to calculate the
spatial position, where the field is to be calculated. The position of measuring point with respect to conductors
and with their images are calculated as,
kr = ))()(( 22

'
kr = ))()(( 22
YmhDXm k (6)
Where,
kr is distance between conductor k and measuring point,
'
kr is distance between image of conductor k and measuring point.
Now the unknown parameter in (4) is Q, the charge on the conductor, which can be calculated by the
following equations. The Maxwell’s potential can be given by,
[V] = [A]. [Q]
[Q]= [A-1
]. [V] (7)
Where,
[V] is potential matrix of conductors in kV,
[Q] is charge on conductors matrix,
[A] is Maxwell’s potential coefficient matrix, which is the geometric relationship between the charge and the
electrostatic potential.

The electric field in the proposed work was calculated based on the following assumptions, the earth
was assumed to be perfect flat surface, the conductor sag was not considered, the conductors were assumed to
be parallel to each other and parallel to the earth surface. The earth was assumed to be perfect conductor as
reluctance of air under 50 Hz transmission line is greater than the earth resistance, which is usually 100-1000
ohm-m.
The electric field interacts with all matters including living organisms. When a conducting object is
subjected to electric field, the electric field interacts with charges in the object. The field can be resolved into
two components, the tangential component and the normal component. Only the normal component is
4. Modelling Of Electric And Magnetic Fields Under High Voltage Ac Transmission Line
DOI: 10.9790/1676-1103042431 www.iosrjournals.org 27 | Page
responsible for induction of charges on the object and the tangential component get vanishes to satisfy the
boundary conditions of the electric field. When the object is grounded then the total current (the short circuit
current) flows to ground. For example, the cyclist under high voltage transmission line feels sudden shock when
they touch the metal part of the cycle. Since the cycle is completely insulated above ground through rubber tires,
the electrostatically induced voltage and current cause sudden shock when it gets low resistance path to ground
like human body .
The short circuit current on the object can be calculated as follows,
Isc = j 0
E S (11)
Where,
E is the field strength at point of measurement.
S is the surface area of object under exposure to electric field.
To calculate the open circuit voltage, the short circuit current was given to Norton equivalent circuit,
the simple electric circuit representation of the conducting object above ground. As shown in the Fig.1, the
conducting object under transmission line was represented as a circuit having current Isc, and the object to
ground capacitance, Cog. The object to ground resistance, Rog (the leakage resistance), which was assumed to
be high. Usually the resistance varies based on the moisture content of the ground. The resistance decreases at
wet ground and it affects the open circuit voltage on object.

III. Magnetic Field Calculation
The magnetic field is generated by moving charges in a conductor or a wire [4-5], usually the 50 Hz
current flowing through transmission and distribution lines produce 50Hz time varying magnetic field. The
magnetic field also a vector quantity having proper magnitude and direction. The magnetic field strength is
measured in terms magnetic lines of force acting per unit area and it is expressed in units of gauss (G) or
milligauss (mG). (The tesla (T) is the unit of magnetic flux density preferred in scientific publications, where
1.0 gauss equals one ten-thousandth of a tesla (0.1 mT) and 1.0 mG equals 0.1 microtesla [μT]).
Many studies have been carried out to compute magnetic field around transmission lines [6-8].The
strength of the magnetic field depends on the magnitude of current and purely independent of voltage strength, it
is not mean that the low voltage line has field lesser than high voltage line, the only reason is the high voltage
line carries high current. If the low voltage line carries the same current then the magnetic field will be same
around both the lines. The uniformity of magnetic field is purely depends upon the proximity of source, the
magnetic field generated by transmission lines are quite uniform over ground, at the same time the field
generated by electric and electronic appliances decreases rapidly over distance. Calculation of magnetic field is
based on some of assumptions such as, the earth is assumed to be flat, the conductors are assumed to be parallel
to each other and parallel to earth surface, the current is assumed to be balanced current, which means the
5. Modelling Of Electric And Magnetic Fields Under High Voltage Ac Transmission Line
DOI: 10.9790/1676-1103042431 www.iosrjournals.org 28 | Page
magnitude of current in all phase conductors are same, this is usually possible when the load on all phase
conductors are maintained in balance under operation.

enclosed in that path.

IV. Results And Discussion
In the proposed methodology, the electric field and the magnetic field were computed around three
phase double circuit 132kV line. The lattice tower structure is shown in the Fig.2. The electric and magnetic
field at any point of interest in the Cartesian coordinate plane can be computed, on considering the center of
transmission tower as reference axis (0, 0). The center of tower at ground corresponds to the point X=0, Y=0.
Fig.2 The 132kv tower structure
The electric and magnetic field strength for 132kV symmetric double circuit transmission power line
was computed about the line of clearance of 30 m right of way and about different heights above the ground.
The height of lowest conductor is about 18.9m above the ground. The electric field at different height above the
ground was computed as shown in the Fig.3 and Fig.4.The electric field strength increases as the height above
ground increases and also the field strength decreases as the radial distance increases. The asymmetry in result is
due to the asymmetry in phase relationship between conductors. This study is based on two scenarios, one is at
ground level about 1m and 5m height above the ground another is about 10m and 15m above the ground. This
will helps to predict the nature of field at ground level and at certain height where live-line workers are
supposed to work.

Fig.4 Electric field at height 15m above ground.
The time varying magnetic field interacts with conducting objects cause time varying electric field and
current in that object. The change in electric field again cause change in magnetic field, the relation between
them can be predicted by Maxwell’s equation. The change magnetic field induces voltage on conducting objects
called Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction. When this field interacts with living organic matters cause
some short term and long term health effects.
According to the study [9], the risk of childhood leukemia among children living in homes with
distance greater than 60m from power lines are analyzed. An increased risk of 69% for leukemia was found for
children living around 200m of power lines, about 23% was found for children living around 200 to 600m of
power lines. Some other studies measure risk by using magnetic field strength as exposure measure revels that
0.3 to 0.4 T leads to double risk of leukemia. In the proposed methodology we found the magnetic field
strength about line of clearance of 30m in double circuit 132kV transmission line

The maximum field strength of 0.608 T obtained at 1m height above ground, at 5m above ground the
maximum field strength of 0.9075 T was obtained as shown in the Fig.5. For height of 10m and 15m the
maximum magnetic field strength obtained as 2.25 and 9.5 T respectively as shown in the Fig.6. These results
revels that, as the height increases the magnetic field strength also increases. Since magnetic field cannot be
shielded by concreate walls, constructing houses near high voltage transmission line cause some serious health
issues. The line men working on transmission towers and lines are subjected to these fields might cause short
term effects depending upon the time period of exposure to field.
V. Conclusion
The software program developed in the proposed methodology provides better understanding of
electric and magnetic field strength under 132kV tower structure. Based on this study preventive measures can
be taken by the peoples who are under vicinity to high voltage transmission lines. The long term health effects
such as cancer due to this low frequency electric and magnetic fields are still under debate and research but still
these fields interacts with conducting objects on ground through resistive, capacitive, and inductive couplings.
When living organism such as human beings are supposed to be in contact with ungrounded or poorly grounded
conducting object such as fence, vehicle, etc. cause momentary shock or serious shock based on the field
strength, area of exposure of conducting object to field, and the resistance of the body which conducts the short
circuit current to earth.
