Abstract
AC interference from high voltage power lines can constitute an electric shock hazard and a threat to equipment integrity during both normal operation conditions and fault conditions. Simplified analysis methods can lead to millions of dollars in excess expenses due directly to overdesign or resulting from the consequences of underdesign. This paper presents a cost-effective AC interference mitigation method, which is made possible by the power of presently existing computer software. The importance of the soil’s multilayer soil structure in determining the performance of mitigation systems is discussed. This mitigation method is compared with other types of mitigation systems.
