N.Y. Comp. Codes R. & Regs. tit. 16 § 127.1
After the effective date of this Part, any electric corporation subject to commission jurisdiction constructing overhead electric transmission facilities shall limit the step-and-touch voltages induced by magnetic fields of such facilities under steady state conditions to 15 volts or less at all points on existing pipelines where a person could normally touch the pipeline or a pipeline appurtenance. This does not apply to buried pipelines or to locations where access is limited by use of fences or barriers to personnel that are trained in safe practices regarding step and touch voltages. The short term emergency loading condition of the circuit as defined by the New York Power Pool for the electric facility shall be used in determining the magnitude of such step-and-touch voltages.
