Electromagnetic Fields Effects
Date of Incident: 15 May 2024
Description:
At Hydro, we recently replaced two of our four large 3ph Transformers. We hired an independent expert to complete an EMF survey around Big Red (T4) as part of managing the potential change in risk associated with installing new plant. The last site-wide survey was completed 8 years previously, being arranged after a staff member had a pacemaker installed. Current EMF risk mitigations were developed from the survey results.
