Power science | High-voltage lines, substations really have radiation?

Occasionally we will hear someone discuss: "there is a substation in front of my house. I heard that the radiation is very high, which will affect the health of children." "I have also heard that high-voltage lines and substations have radiation, which is harmful to human body." Is there really radiation? Is it really harmful to the human body? Today, we come together to reveal the truth of the matter.

Occasionally we will hear someone discuss: "there is a substation in front of my house. I heard that the radiation is very high, which will affect the health of children." "I have also heard that high-voltage lines and substations have radiation, which is harmful to human body."

Is there really radiation? Is it really harmful to the human body? Today, we come together to reveal the truth of the matter.

What is radiation?

First of all, let's deepen our understanding of radiation, which is a physical effect or physical phenomenon.

The health hazards of human beings after receiving radiation come from the changes of atoms and molecules composed of atoms in tissue cells caused by various rays through ionization. These changes are also the result of atomic excitation.

In addition, there are many types of radiation. But today we're going to focus on understanding electromagnetic radiation.

What is electromagnetic radiation?

The interaction between the electric field and the magnetic field will produce electromagnetic waves. When the electromagnetic waves are emitted or leaked into the air, electromagnetic radiation is formed.

Many people may not understand that the earth where human beings live is a large magnetic field, and the thermal radiation and lightning on its surface can produce electromagnetic radiation.

At the same time, radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light and ultraviolet rays in our daily lives are all electromagnetic radiation.

Ultraviolet rays are all electromagnetic radiation, which makes you warm every day!

Radio waves are electromagnetic radiation, and communication depends on it.

The light from the bulb is also electromagnetic radiation.

Microwave hot dishes warm water, all rely on electromagnetic radiation energy!

Does the high voltage substation produce radiation?

China's power industry frequency (referred to as the frequency) is 50Hz (Hz), the wavelength is 6000km. It is characterized by low frequency and long wavelength. When conductors such as high-voltage lines and power distribution devices in substations are running, there will be power frequency electric fields and power frequency magnetic fields around the conductors.

The electromagnetic radiation is generated when the length of the radiator is greater than the 1/4 value of its working wavelength, and the effective electromagnetic radiation is generated. The higher the frequency and the shorter the wavelength, the easier it is to generate electromagnetic radiation. Therefore, the high-voltage substation does not produce radiation, only the power frequency electromagnetic field exists around.

Power frequency electromagnetic field ≠ radiation

The power frequency electric field and power frequency magnetic field formed by high-voltage power facilities have extremely low frequency, which can not form effective electromagnetic excitation, and their propagation performance is very poor. They will decrease rapidly with the increase of distance. They are not the same thing as the high-frequency "electromagnetic radiation" we usually talk about, and will not be directly absorbed by the human body like electromagnetic radiation.

High-voltage shore power successfully achieved "full coverage", Ningbo Zhoushan Port broke the "green power code" again"

On December 28, at berth 2 of Daxie Container Terminal in Zhoushan Port, Ningbo, the container ship "Tianxiuhe" berthed and connected the terminal shore power system to supply power to the ship. This indicates that the four major container port areas of Ningbo Zhoushan Port have achieved full coverage and full operation of high-voltage shore power. State Grid Ningbo Power Supply Company has built and put into operation 13 sets of high-voltage shore power systems in Ningbo Zhoushan Port, covering the four major container port areas of Beilun, Chuanshan, Meishan and Daxie, involving 24 berths with a total capacity of 55.4 MVA. The high-voltage shore power facilities built and put into operation by the company will supply 63 times in 2023, with a cumulative power supply of 1.457 million kWh.


The national power supply is guaranteed during the peak summer period.
