Investigation of electrical potential and electromagnetic field for overhead high voltage power lines in Malaysia
The exposure of human body to electric field and magnetic field could cause biological effects, including changes in functions of cells and tissues and subtle changes in hormone levels, which may or may not be harmful. The aim of this study was to analyze and compute the amount of electrical potenti...
