Assessment of Extremely Low-Frequency Magnetic Field from Multiple High-Voltage Overhead Power Lines in Parallel Configuration

The study investigates the distribution of the extremely low-frequency magnetic field around multiple highvoltage overhead power lines in parallel configuration. It is conducted using a computation approach based on the finite element method for an arrangement of five 110-kV doublecircuit lines located in a suburban area of the Iasi city, Romania. Results obtained by numerical simulation are then compared to appropriate regulations regarding human exposure to magnetic fields. The cumulative effect of the magnetic fields from multiple overhead power lines is also discussed.
