Table of Contents Summary

Part I - High Magnetic Fields - Avoiding them or Reducing them
(introductory material)

Part II - Water Line Currents - Do they Matter?
(perhaps the biggest source of residential fields)

Part III - Mitigating Water-line-current Fields
(measures that can reduce water line currents and/or their field
production)

Part IV - Wiring Errors and Anomalies
(the various errors or defects that produce field-generating loops
of current inside a house)

Part V - Power Company Wiring - Distribution Lines
(the lines that bring power to a neighborhood or to an individual
house, and how they may produce or not produce fields)

Part VI - Power Company Wiring - Transmission Lines
(high-voltage lines that carry power long distances - their fields
and the difficulty of doing anything about them)

Part VII - Magnetic Shielding and "Conduit Shielding"
(the "obvious" way to reduce fields that is usually disappointing or
exorbitant, or both - with exceptions)

Part VIII - Appliance Fields
(fields that may be the highest we see, but are localized - various
fixes, for various appliances - mainly distance)

Part IX - Available Magnetic Field Meters
(35 makes and models in the range from $40 to $730 - their
convenience, their accuracy, their quirks - with photos)

Appendices
(technical details for electricians, plumbers, power company
technicians using a "Beast of Burden" instrument/pipe thawers)

Jargon
(a glossary of technical terms and buzz words)
