The validity of several published investigations of the possibility that residential exposures to 50 Hz or 60 Hz electromagnetic fields might cause adverse psychological effects, such as suicide and depression, may have been limited by inadequate controlling for confounders or inadequate measurement

โฆ Synopsis
The protection of extra high voltage transmission lines from lightning is of considerable importance as a result of the excessive flashover rate of such lines in the United States. The problem is quite complex, because the factors involved are many and relatively few accurate data are available. Interest in the subject is evidenced by the large number of publications appearing in recent years. It is the aim of this paper to evaluate critically the various component factors involved in the light of the recent excessive flashover rate of extra high voltage transmission lines.

A perfluorocarbon (PFC)-immersed 275-kV transformer with compressed SF,, gas has been developed. This paper describes the basic cooling and insulation characteristics of PFC, the ac partial discharge voltage, and the aging of PFC-immersed insulation. The results demonstrate that a prototype 275-kV 1
We investigated the phenomenon of lightning strokes on 500-kV transmission lines from 1984 to 1993. The investigation covered the recording of lightning paths by still cameras and measurements of lightning current at the lower part of transmission tower on 31 towers, over a 12.7-km-long section of t
Two herds of beef cattle were maintained beneath a k500 kV direct-current transmission line during a 30-month period, and were compared with two similar herds maintained away from the transmission line. Exposures of animals under the line were five to 30 times greater than those of control animals,
