Power line protection zone: how many metres by voltage
Czechia
The exact zone depends on the type and height of the structure, the exceptions in Section 11 and the applicable local planning documentation. Verify the specific project before construction.
Distances and rules
The protection zone of an overhead power line is measured from the outer conductors on each side and grows with voltage. Inside it, building and many works need the grid operator’s consent.
