The last decades the concern of the public, regarding the possible affects from the exposure to magnetic and electric fields, has grown considerably. This is because the generation, transmission and distribution of electric power are accompanied with the presence of the above mentioned fields. This paper attempts to illustrate the values of the resultant magnetic field in the low frequency range, near a compact kiosk type substation 630KVA, 20-0.4 kV. The measurements were performed in a park, in the city center of Chania, Greece, during summer time. All measured magnetic field values were lower in comparison to the value of 100μΤ introduced by ICNIRP.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
