EMF & RFI Studies

Mitton ElectroNet offer specialist services in Electromagnetic Fields, Radio Frequency Interface & Audible Noise studies.

Our skilled team can help you with:

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)

There is increasing public awareness about the effects of EMF in our environment. Mitton ElectroNet offer computer modelling and site measurement services to investigate EMF around substations and transmission lines.

New and existing installations can be modelled to determine compliance with relevant EMF standards such as the ICNIRP guidelines. Modelling can then be verified on site using specialised EMF measurement equipment. In addition, transmission line audible and radio frequency noise, and corona studies can be carried out.

Induction

Electric and magnetic coupling can occur between high voltage power lines and communications cables, gas and water pipelines. This may present a hazard to the plant (eg SCADA and telephone equipment), the public and maintenance personnel. We can investigate these issues and provide practical solutions. Transmission line and cable impedance characteristics can also be determined to enable accurate modelling of induction issues.

Radio Frequency Interface (RFI) & Audible Noise (AN)

Using computer modelling CDEGS the levels of RFI generated by energised HV conductors can be calculated. Radio and television interference issues can be fully investigated.
