Living Under Powerlines

[Crazy Dazz]

Bit of an "out there" post. Anyone got any knowledge or experience of this subject.

For lifestyle reasons (including sheds, cars, dogs, chooks, etc) I have been looking into the possibility of buying an acreage, without moving too far from Perth.

Properties come on the market from time to time, that align with the Marshall Rd HV Power Corridor. Typically the lots follow a similar pattern. They comprise an average suburban building lot at the front, usually around 20m x 35m, and then a huge easement out the back under the powerlines, that may go back another 100m. In some cases, the rear easement is aggregated (ie the adjoining houses only have the front lot)
And as you might imagine, these are very reasonably priced.

Apart from the psychological impact of living in such a place, has anyone had any actually experience of the practicalities and science involved?

I would imagine that the EMR alone can create unique challenges?
Can't imagine FTA TV is much good?
Are those things the Lightning Rods I imagine them to be?
