This first-of-its-kind shielded extension cord is molded, machine-made, UL-listed, and proven to work. Normal extension cords, power strips, and power cords of all kinds are not shielded.  The conductors inside the cord of a typical cord are just covered in plastic.  This allows the electric field - measured in volts per meter - to freely permeate out in the environment.  These alternating-current electric fields are switching from positive to negative and drawing the electrons in one's body and then repelling them, causing oscillation.  In particular the high frequencies ("dirty electricity") are believed to be the most harmful. The International Institute for Building Biology and Ecology (baubiologie) sets standards for exposure to electric fields at .3 volts per meter.  Using ElectraHealth premium shielded extension cords, power cords, and properly-grounded shielded ethernet cables greatly reduces the electric field readings.  It's always the cords that are closest to us or plugged-in in the same room that cause the highest readings.  ElectraHealth shielded cords can reduce these readings greater than 90% in many circumstances.
