- the more recent epidemiological studies show little evidence that either power lines or "electrical occupations" are associated with an increase in cancer (see Q19);
- laboratory studies have shown little evidence of a link between power-frequency fields and cancer (see Q16);
- an extensive series of studies have shown that life-time exposure of animals to power-frequency magnetic fields does not cause cancer (see Q16B);
- a connection between power line fields and cancer is physically implausible (see Q18).
