No no, work around hv and you'll feel electricity even if you're not doing hot work a lot of the time you can feel the inductive fields around you.

    First of all, there are no "inductive fields". There are electric and magnetic fields and what you can feel or sometimes hear are the electric fields.

    Edit: I don't understand all the downvotes, but whatever. Specifically what you can hear near high voltage power lines sometimes is partial discharge which is caused by high electric field strengths.

    Electromagnetic induction is what you're feeling and it is indeed creating an inductive field.

    Electromagnetic fields induce electric fields, so you're saying these inductive fields that you can feel are electric fields or do you feel the magnetic field of the induced currents?

    An induced magnetic field is how you feel electricity around high voltage. What even is your argument here because what you're saying in large part makes no sense.

    My argument is that you can't feel magnetic fields. What is yours, because all you write is utter nonsense. Electric fields are induced, not magnetic fields, it's called Faraday's law of induction, inductive field is not a technical term. You get a magnetic field from an induced current which is caused by the electric field in a conductor.

    You can absolutely feel electromagnetic fields. You're being overly tedious about verbiage. Neat.

    What kind of fields?

    When PD, arcing or sparking occurs, electromagnetic waves propagate away from the fault site in all directions which contact the transformer tank and travel to earth (ground cable) where the HFCT is located to capture any EMI or EMP within the transformer, breaker, PT, CT, HV Cable, MCSG, LTC, LA, generator, large hv motors, etc.

    Electromagnetic ones!

    Yes, EM-Waves consist of an Electric and an orthogonal Magnetic field, these are linked, one can't exist without the other, otherwise you wouldn't get a wave. Partial discharge which is a form of corona discharge is caused by Electric fields.

    Neat. So tell me, am I wrong in any of my statements this far. No? So what is the point of this tedious interaction?

    You're citing random parts of a wikipedia article that talks about an effect caused by an electric field and claim that it's caused by a magnetic field. You're an unscientific troll.

    It's not random if you read the wiki.

    And you're a tedious know-it-all. So again answer my question have I said anything untrue? No, I phrased something in a way you don't agree with because it's atypical but not inaccurate.

    Grow up or be more entertaining at the very least.
