Most Important things To Note When Before buying or building near power lines - TheRealEstateDoctor

Before buying or building near power lines, you must observe the official setback distances — it’s not just for compliance, it’s for your safety and property protection also ! 

According to the Federal Ministry of Power, Works & Housing, the required horizontal distances from PHCN High Tension Lines are: 

🔹 0.415-volt Low Tension Lines → 6 metres

🔹 11 KVA Lines → 6 metres

🔹 33 KVA Lines → 10 metres (from the closest line) 

🔹 132 KVA Lines → 20 metres (from the centre of the line) 

🔹 330 KVA Lines → 30 metres (on both sides from the pylon base)

 🔹 Substations → 12 metres (from the substation boundary) 

These setbacks help prevent electrical hazards, ensure accessibility for maintenance, and protect your investment from demolition risks during future enforcement drives.

 So, before you build or buy, consult an expert like #therealestatedoctor on +2348066143574
