Get PriceSep 30, 2017· Workers look to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to understand how close they should be to power lines. As a general rule, 10 feet is the minimum safe working distance from power lines. To follow exact regulations, you should know the voltage of the power lines that you will be working near.
Get Price23-09-2019· So, although scientists don't yet understand it, the research does seem to suggest that living near high voltage powerlines is indeed dangerous. Now, as you probably gathered from reading this, how dangerous living near a power line depends entirely on the distance between you and the power line
Get PriceYou're probably dealing with a distribution line. Overhead distribution lines consist of wires that are supported by utility poles about 10 m (30 ft.) high. These poles are most often made of wood but are sometimes concrete. The wires at the top of the poles are medium-voltage conductors, which carry 750

Get PriceJun 04, 2019· As per these regulations, a 440KV power transmission line which passes at 7.4 metre vertical height and 5.7 metre horizontal distance from a building is within limits. That however is absurd. 3. A far more advanced clearance zone for buildings near high tension electrical lines is laid down by The Haryana Building code, 2017 as part of the
Get Price18-12-2017· The poles are typically safe as they are either simple wood poles that just carry the line, or they are a shielded metal or plastic that protects the wiring within. However, the lines themselves, which carry voltage close to a half a million volts, emit electrical and magnetic fields.
Get Priceequipment (even at the lowest voltage) can be fatal. The height of the line varies according to the voltage carried (see Figure 1) so for example any 11 kV or 33 kV OHPL on your land should be at least 5.2 m above the ground. Electrical equipment mounted on poles may be lower than the clearances specified in this guidance. Although
