Is This Residential Distance From a Power Substation Okay?

Where is the home?

How old IS the power station?

Have you:

1. Asked your neighbors?

2. Asked for a home inspection report?

3. Done any research on this yourself?

4. Turned an AM radio on and tuned it so you hear no stations?

What specifically are your concerns? I believe a fence should mark the safe boundary....

Tin foil hats are coming back into vogue. Seriously, the EMF folks are whacko.

Just remember, TIN-FOIL HATS only truly 'work' if they're grounded...preferably by a silver-rod that's been driven firmly 'through' one or both feet (wink,wink)!

Now this,

is a tin foil hat!

Where?

What hat, I don't see no hat!

Turn your eyes upwards!

Welcome to the club!

Have you done any of the things I suggested in my first response?

If not, don't complain!

some of us are grammar fiends too

in their late 40s

thank you

"...in their late 40's..."

And a few others.

Early fifties but I'll take that as a compliment. It's still a joke today. Really.

I (Dare I say, "We..."?) have known for some time that "young whippersnappers" in their callow youth who rely upon television "celebrities" like Oprah Winfrey for wisdom and guidance* would do themselves favors by listening to -- and heeding -- those who might be a bit more, ah, "seasoned" (mature) and are not buffeted about and lost on the "Scare of the Week" Sea.

*It is obvious that the works and wisdom of Aristotle, Plato, Descartes, Pascal, and many others are not taught in institutes of "education" any longer.

Can anyone suggest if this is a safe distance?

Most likely yes as the homes appear to be well outside the safe distance for electrocution hazard which is longer than the safe distance for damage to prolonged EM field exposure from the power lines (as per the standards). This means you will die of electric shock before you are effected by EM fields given off by the power lines.

However, the presence of visible power poles next to the homes boundary will most likely effect property resale value (which is what you should be concerned about).

Tin foil hats will NOT protect against electric shock and wearing them WILL effect property resale values if you try to sell to someone while wearing one, so you are right to ignore others on this site that suggest wearing them.

the pointy hats direct the negative energy up and away from your brain,

If your florescent tubes glow outside the fixtures, then I'd say your too close, but your electricity bill will be cheaper because of it! Otherwise, google cancer clusters in you area and see where they centered at and what type of cancers. If you find the cancers are in the groin area of your body, then I don't think a tin foil hat will help you much.

..and no more microwave popcorn, or anything else in the microwave oven. There's plenty of EMF emitted there.

The substation is not any problem. Some people are concerned if the high voltage power lines go over their house. Do they? Since I am a short-wave radio listener, I would not want that. The use of a cell phone is much more dangerous than the power lines (unless they fall on you).
