Abstract: Some pipelines and overhead a-c transmission systems have exisied close together in the same righl-of way for decades wiihoui significant problems. There have been only a few cases where electrical interference effects on the pipelines are known to have resulted in damage to the pipelines, or hazardous condilions for personnel working on them. And yet, in recent years, this has become a matter of increasing concern to pipeline operators. The question is: Why should this excite inieresl now, when not much attention was paid to it in earlier years? There are several reasons for this. The ever-increasing demands for energy have resulted in a proliferation of both pipelines and a-c transmission systems, and the limiied space available for these has forced them into common corridors. Obviously, this provides more opportunity for cases of electrical interference to develop.
