Default exposure to high EMF problem in our new bought house
Hi All,

I just found our house is exposed to high EMF(2-5mG) at peak time (2pm-8pm). The source is the underground power line at our backyard. The reason is the net current problem caused by the power line which is not arranged well to cancel the EMF(something like that i'm not so sure).

I have 2 small kids and realize that high EMF is not good for them. There is not option to move out. So should we do? Does anyone has the same problem and found a solution? Do you think I should contact our electrict company?

Thanks very much for any inputs.

What proof do you have that the high EMF is due to the underground line? How did you find out?
What do you mean by "it's not arranged well" ?

Who even checks for EMF? I always thought EMF detectors were used on the ghost hunting shows to see if a ghost was in the room.

The underground power line is buried in our backyard. When I walk toward it from the front door, the reading gets up. That's the proof.

More people use it to test EMF in the house now.

Are you sure your house isn't haunted?

you scared me. I never thought about ghost before.
But the EMF reading is high only when it's the peak time when everybody got home from work. So I don't think it's anything else excep the powerline in the backyard.

Maybe because everyone getting home from work and turning on electrical things might make it go up. How many adults live in this house?
