Abstract
With the ever burgeoning population rate and rapid industrialisation, the demand for power has increased manifold. Ultra High Voltage AC transmission is one of the measures to arrest this increasing energy demands. This paper evaluates the safety limits for electric and magnetic fields generated around the UHV AC transmission lines. Shielding methods are also evaluated to reduce the electric field at ground level. Moreover surface current density for human beings has also been calculated.
