If you are into the ionised/charged particle theory, you are better off living upwind of HV powerlines than downwind. eg in Melbourne, better to live on the west side of the lines than east, as the prevailing winds are westerly, The Y-man

Bog standard residential setup. 22K or 11K on top with that big transformer dropping to 415/240V. The 22k/11k is very common - the lower the voltage, the greater the loss on the lines, so you wan to run as high as possible as close as possible to the house. If you want to avoid this...

The top picture would probably be a 22KV line with a set of transformers (the cylindrical things) stepping it down to 415V on the lower set (you house takes one wire or "phase" of this at 240V). The middle picture is probably a 360~ish KV The bottom one is 500KV thing (the highest voltage...

It is a perception issue - and if you have your IP under a 500KV line, you are limiting your tenant pool down to people wo are willing to live under them. Also, when it comes time to sell, same issue - smaller pool of buyers, lower price. Most people avoid houses under HV lines, but seem...

Basically on how far apart the lines are kept. eg These are "normal" residential types These are the lower of the high voltage Then these monsters - notice the "4 wire" lines for current capacity, and they can only carry 3 per tower - 1 line for each phase. Th 2 wires at the top are...
