110KV line - buying a plot with the idea of building a house.

Hello, I have already read a bit on this topic, usually topics from 10 years ago. However, I would like to ask for advice personally. I have an eye on a plot of 800 m2 in the city, at an attractive price, but on this plot in the very corner there is a pole supporting the 110kv lines.

The owner who lives by the fence and pole has lived there all his life and claims that he has no health or other problems that can be heard from others. The line is quite old (rusty pole), the owner of the plot has permission to build a single-family house at a distance of 7 meters from the line, so in the case of this plot you can build halfway.

In addition, in 2008, gentlemen from the power industry were with him, signing the contract he has for the indefinite demolition of the line - unfortunately it is not known if this will happen and when.

I attach a photo of the plot to the description, from this perspective, the lines can be seen in the upper right corner and just behind the frame on the right in the corner of the plot there is the pillar I mentioned, while the house can be built on the left side which is in contact with the asphalt road.

I am asking for advice whether it is worth being interested in it, as I am most concerned about my own and future family's health (electromagnetic field).

Maybe I'm not entirely on the subject, but I will say as much as I noticed. Being not long ago in Germany, I passed through a housing estate where two high-voltage lines passed (- I think it was more than 110kV). One pole stood behind the garage about 5 meters from the house and the whole line passed over the roofs of houses, an estate built several dozen years ago and I don't think the airline has any health effect on the people who live there.

The owner of the plot you are planning on? If he said anything else, he would never sell it

Because there is no. May have an effect (on the basis of the placebo effect) on the health of people who believe the line is harmful.

In sum: If you have any doubts that it may be harmful, do not buy. If you don't have it, buy it.

When it comes to health, this is my priority, which is why my concern is, despite the fact that there are such lines and people live in other cities or even, in this case, in single-family houses next to the line or under the line. Can I have other problems? For example, bad TV or Radio reception? Telephone interference - poor coverage? How does this relate to thunderstorm and lightning? Because here the attraction of such phenomena is certainly greater due to the pole and lines.

When it comes to lightning, a tall steel grounded pole makes for a nice lightning conductor. I wouldn't expect any health problems either unless you start climbing this pole.

Not only the pole structure, but also a lightning rod installed at the top of the pole, protecting the network at the same time.

Find out if he signed for the demolition and only the demolition of this line. Check if the line is in the local development plan (you say the city, so a good chance that it is fixed) or what may appear in the development conditions if you apply for it. Check if the plot has an easement in the land and mortgage register. The risk is that this line may disappear (if only it disappears, it will be ok) worse when it disappears and a new one will appear in its place (half the trouble as in the same size). Check that it does not generate noise (preferably on a damp day). If the aesthetics do not bother you, there is no tragedy with the EM field (it looks like 110 kV).

The guest has a contract for demolition (no modernization, etc.) only for an indefinite period, so I reckon it may take place in 20 years. Aesthetics would somehow not be bothered more by safety / health issues if there are any, and knowing that the EM field concerns are rather unfounded on my part.

If this line was effective enough to endanger your health, while building a simple solenoid, you would have electricity for free

Unjustified but reckon with the trouble of receiving a radio one on 225kHz - if you intend to listen, of course

Hello
I wrote many times on the forum that I grew up practically under the 220kV line myself.
I don't think that this line had a particularly significant impact on my health. It was she who inspired me to be interested in the electromagnetic field.

In my humble opinion, the closely located HV line should be treated as some kind of environmental pollution, such as noise. I know a lot of people who live in streets with a lot of traffic noise and have grown up to be normal people.
The street where I live - used to be very quiet, now someone is constantly passing by. But I got used to it. It is similar with various sources of EM (electrical installation, cell phones) - my body has got used to it and has become immune.

What's that pillar in the top left corner?
