| Summary: | Since centuries ago, the creation of electricity has given many advantages and
conveniences to humans. However, it gives side effects that arise from the use of
electricity itself. The increasing of electricity consumption give an impact to human
and environment because of electromagnetic field that produces when the electric
passes an object. This field emits radiation which resulted in increasing of
temperature in the atmosphere. The main objective of this study is to analyse
electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation impact from high voltage power transmission
line in Kedah state. Electrical substation line, Landsat image year 2011, 2014 and
2016 land used of study area were used to investigate the affected area. The most
affected area by EMR radiation is agriculture area followed by forest area. The
increasing effect of EMR on residential area is 0.7% in year 2011. The significant for
this study help the government agencies to evaluate the pollution that has occurred in
the atmosphere throughout six year intervals. |
