You need a calibrated gauss meter to measure the magnetic field. The meter should be calibrated for 60 Hz (50 Hz in the U.K.). Unless you know the current through the transformer, the number of windings, the permeability of the core, and the permissivity of the shielding, your calculations will be meaningless.
You need to physically measure the magnetic field.
Touche.

I get the impression that EU uses a larger "safe human distance" from Power Lines than does USA/CAN.
Any thoughts on the effect of even low milligauss fields on human health?
There are EPIC am'ts of obvious BS online about this topic...I'm just trying to find the truth...and I am unqualified in this discipline.
I'd appreciate any input.
Many thanks for sharing your knowledge.
