ELECTRIC-FIELD DISTRIBUTIONS INSIDE A METALLIC HOUSE LOCATED UNDER 345 KV POWER-LINES

This paper presents the image technique and the moment method (MM) for analyzing electric field distributions inside a metallic house, locat ed under 345 kV power transmission lines. The validity of the numerica l method is checked by comparing it with the experimental results of t he electric fields measured inside the metallic house. Results showed that the validity of the numerical method is extremely accurate. In th e future, electric fields induced inside houses located under power tr ansmission lines can be accurately calculated by using the MM techniqu e in the place of time-consuming measurements.
