Limits of electromagnetic interference from overhead a.c. powerlines and high voltage equipment installations in the frequency range 0.15 MHz to 3000 MHz
Standards Australia
This Standard establishes limits for electromagnetic interference (radio disturbance) from alternating current (a.c.) overhead powerlines and high voltage (HV) equipment installations in the frequency range 0.15 MHz to 3000 MHz.
This Standard establishes limits for electromagnetic interference (radio disturbance) from alternating current (a.c.) overhead powerlines and high voltage (HV) equipment installations in the frequency range 0.15 MHz to 3000 MHz. The limits are specified in accordance with geographical zones and coverage areas. Australia is situated in Region 3 and the various coverage areas within Zones A, B and C of Region 3 are shown in Figure 1. These limits are specified for the protection of broadcast radio reception and other radio communication services, including navigation and safety-of-life services.
The limits assume the powerlines and equipment installations have a defined corridor or boundaries within which radio reception cannot be guaranteed and where special measures may be taken.
Outside these boundaries, a satisfactory level of reception, as defined by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), can be expected.
Limits for single components of powerlines and equipment installations are under consideration.
