Description
Summary:This paper presents calculations of the distribution of the magnetic fields generated by the current in phase conductors of overhead high-voltage power lines. The calculations are made for the area between the line paths and the terrain, with a particular focus on the area near the ground, important from the standpoint of humans present there, temporarily or permanently. Magnetic field distribution is determined for different arrangements of the phase conductors and line circuits, which are related to tower design. Minimum magnetic field value expressed in A/m and cost of building the power line are the optimisation criteria.
