In fact, problems with EMFs, EMI and "dirty" electrical power are becoming more common. Common sources include nearby power lines and transformers, electrical meter and distribution equipment, building wiring systems, electrical grounding problems, stray currents and voltages in water or gas pipes, electric motors and machinery, electronic equipment, and many other sources. Michael Neuert is an electrical engineer and licensed California electrical contractor, with over 14 years experience in the testing and mitigation of troublesome EMF and EMI problems in commercial and industrial buildings. The following are five case examples, to give some familiarity with the typical types of problems and solutions. Case 1. Internet Facility in Los Angeles. The Problem: Magnetic fields from nearby power lines caused troublesome interference on computer screens in a third of the building. Most Cost-Effective Solution: Installed a special custom-designed electronic cancellation system. Case 2. Office Building in Kansas City, Missouri. The Problem: High EMFs and computer interference in offices above a large transformer vault. Most Cost-Effective Solution: Rerouted transformer cables to make use of automatic self-cancellation. Case 3. Office Building in San Francisco, California. The Problem: High EMFs and interference experienced in office areas next to an electrical transformer closet. Most Cost Effective Solution: Installed shielding materials around the two transformers. Case 4. Electronic Manufacturing Facility in Santa Rosa, California. The Problem: Mysterious interference problems were causing costly operation setbacks when this high-tech manufacturer moved to a new production facility. Most Cost Effective Solution: Systematically traced, troubleshooted and repaired a series of error conditions in the building's electrical system. Case 5. Warehouse Accounting Office in Sacramento, California. The Problem: The electrical meter/distribution panel for this large warehouse caused high EMFs and interference problems on computers in the adjacent office area. Most Cost Effective Solution: Installed magnetic shielding material onto the wall between the electrical meter and the office area. |
