The 110kV powerline is passing through my backyard 30m away from house and i would like to get 220V 4Aand rated power of max 5kW.How big coils do i have to make?Are there any ideas?

From basic principles (Maxwell's equations), it is possible to extract electrical power by induction from an overhead power line with widely spaced 3-phase conductors using a large wire loop. I haven't done the calculation, so I don't know how much power can be extracted for a given setup. However, it is against the law. The magnetic field from the loop current creates a back EMF on the transmission line that drains power just as if you had a conventional hookup, so it is "free energy" to *you* only in the sense that you are stealing it..

I've seen somewhere, someone standing under a pylon holding a flouresent tube in the air. So long as you touch the tube contact at the end & ensure you make a good earth point, it will light. (urban myth poss).
A crystal radio set powers its self from radio waves that would be much weaker.
So theres your lighting & entertainment sorted as you wind your coils!

Mythbusters did an episode on this - I can only get the google cache page up for wikipedia

its half way down in a section called free energy in episode special 4

contact you power provide, request a 240 Volt transformer pot be installed and connected to your home service pole.

It is 110 kV (case does matter)

did you say wirless electricity transmission.
i thought wireless transmission of electricity is not possible yet [`|`]
