| Abstract |
Describes a syndrome, which the author calls the "HVS effect" (high-voltage substation), which affects persons working at substations where very high-voltage current is transformed and which disappears shortly after the end of the exposure. It is characterised by a feeling of tightness and oppression affecting the head, laxity and fatigue in the upper extremities and persistent insomnia; electroencephalograms show signs of cerebral pain. |
