Hi All,
A better place would be inside an aluminum smelting plant. The pot lines use
a voltage of 600v with an amperage 0f 100,000 amps. Lots of gauss there. I once
worked as an engineer on a pot line and none of my mechanical watches would keep
proper time because of the magnetic fields.
Thanks
Jim Freeman
