How significant is the invention of a property about 3 houses away from a power line at the top of a power tower?
How significant are property inventions at a distance of about 3 houses from a power line at the top of a very high power tower above the ground?
According to studies I have read opinions are divided:
https://www.epa.gov/radtown/electric-and-magnetic-fields-power-lines
So of course it is better not to and around the property there will be only butterflies and birds, but sometimes there is a good deal at a distance that seems reasonable from such a line of tension and the questions asked are:
1. How dangerous is such non-ionizing radiation?
2. Is there an increased risk of cancer?
3. What is the reasonable safety distance - from radiation studies in the army I remember the square law the distance from radiation - I would love to hear from an electrical expert about recommendations
4. To what extent can such a power line affect the future sale of the property? Increase in value, etc.
5. Danger to children?

Listen. Influence it sure affects humans.
/ Radiation / magnetic field etc.
If it's for business it's one thing.
If it's for personal use it's a different thing.
I would not raise my children there.
There are rules and a very clear code for determining the distance of the first house. And yet it does not matter. If you have a doubt, it is likely that the reasonable customer will have a doubt and therefore the demand has decreased for the first and second house.
If you are the sub-division developer then I would place the playgrounds there etc.
Why?
Because the code talks about the amount of exposure hours in a particular area and therefore the amount of hours a person has at home, which is at least 12 hours (including sleep), is several times higher than a person's hours on the field on average (one hour a day).
In my experience, the country deals with it much more than the US. Some like to have huge grass behind their house following the line and some do not. But I have not heard discussions here as to whether it is good or not.
Anyway if it is embodied in the familiar that you are buying the house it should be with also selling. Ask the agent if this is taken into account
From my experience from the country, and I am not an electrical expert:
1. If you are on the power line then it is dangerous. How dangerous? Do not know how to answer it… Also go to sleep that your phone is charging near the head it is dangerous
2. As Answer 1
3. The law of square distance is correct. Every meter you move away from the radiation will fall squared. By and large this means that if you are not first line below the voltage line then the radiation goes down significantly
Answers 4 to 1 are not relevant to this question. In the end it looks bad and probably the future buyer will want to price it… However, where I live in the country, houses are sold at high prices below the voltage line so it is impossible to know…
5. Do not take responsibility for it ????
There was once a documentary about an entire town in the US that sued the IEC for high voltage that went over the houses and the cancer morbidity was insane there. Look up sentences that have been in the past (20 years) and you will find a lot of material that proves that there is some connection
If it is non-ionizing there is no chance of an increased risk of cancer. In general I really never got around to looking at a property and asking it .. an interesting point
