Current research shows no link to adverse health effects.

A considerable amount of research has been done to determine whether electric and magnetic fields (EMF) from power lines adversely affect the health of those living near the lines. The research findings have been inconclusive; there is no direct cause-and-effect link between EMF and any illness. To learn more about EMF, visit the American Transmission Company’s (ATC) web site.
