AI Thread Summary
Transmission voltages in India are standardized at multiples of 11kV due to historical and technical reasons, primarily related to the design of electrical systems. This standardization helps in reducing losses and improving efficiency in power distribution. The choice of 11kV and its multiples is also linked to the need for compatibility with various equipment and infrastructure. Despite the availability of information online, confusion persists among users regarding these voltage levels. Understanding these standards is crucial for effective power management and infrastructure development in the country.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
