Title
Silencing the Fields - EMF Reduction Principles
Description
Physicist Ed Leeper has been active for nearly three decades, working with epidemiologist Nancy Wertheimer, PhD, in the area of research that has explored the possible health risks of AC magnetic fields. In Silencing the Fields he draws together in one resource the related work that has been done by various scientists, engineers, and electricians on evaluating and reducing AC magnetic fields. He has been at the center of that work, from its beginning.
The "politics" and the technical difficulties of getting changes made by a power company are discussed. And the human side. Information your power company may not want you to know, or at least won't volunteer - and things they do want you to understand. (They have the idea that they are not really ogres, but are fathers and mothers and homeowners themselves.)
A power company will not spend large amounts to reduce fields. Indeed, they may not be allowed or encouraged to do so by state regulatory agencies. (Since such costs get passed through to the electric rates for all customers, a state Utilities Commission usually has the final decision.) But certain low-cost changes may be possible - especially if we can argue that there are other reasons to "upgrade" a line. (Better, more well-maintained lines may make lower fields, and conserve energy as well. See, for instance, sample chapter 65, elsewhere in this site.)
