World Health Organisation Fact sheet N°322 on the effects of electrical and magnetic fields, June 2007:

Following a standard health risk assessment process, the Task Group concluded that there are no substantive health issues related to ELF electric fields at levels generally encountered by members of the public. Thus the remainder of this fact sheet addresses predominantly the effects of exposure to ELF magnetic fields.

However, if you've already convinced yourself that power lines kill kittens, or that the CIA are tapping your phone, no evidence is ever going to persuade you otherwise.
