Substations inoburitsa electromagnetic radiation, inozivikanwawo seelectronic smog. Zvinoenderana neakakodzera masimba ekudzivirira zvivakwa zvemagetsi, kune 110 kV substation transmission pamusoro mutsara, nzvimbo yayo yekudzivirira ndeye 10 metres kunze kwemutsara, nemamwe mazwi, chero mufambo kubva patambo yemagetsi 10 metres kure nenzvimbo, electromagnetic radiation chengetedzo inovimbiswa.

Kune 220 kv uye 500 kV kutapurirana uye shanduko system mitsara, nzvimbo yekudzivirira ndeye 15 metres uye 20 metres zvakateerana. Kana iri nzvimbo yekuchengetedza yekunze kwebhokisi substation, nhambwe yekuchengetedza ye6KV ndeye 0.7m, 0.4kV ndiyo yakaderera-voltage divi, uye zvakanaka kuti usabata. Iyo inonzi chengetedzo nhambwe ndiyo nhambwe shoma pakati pemuviri wemunhu nemuviri wakachajwa.
