This study presents an overview of the High Voltage Overhead Line (SUTT) located within the residential areas of Buduran District, Sidoarjo, highlighting its spatial characteristics and potential implications for the surrounding community environment. Previous studies on magnetic and electric fields around high-voltage transmission lines are mostly conducted in generalized or large-scale urban and industrial settings. However, localized assessments in specific residential or semi-urban areas such as Buduran remain scarce, leaving uncertainty about the actual exposure levels experienced by surrounding communities. This research is an quantitative descriptive analysis using IEEE Standards for EMI in transmission lines, sampling was carried out in 4 different settlements passed by SUTT were Pager Wojo Village, Sidokepung Village, Sidokerto Village and Buduran Village. The finding show that the magnetic field and electric field values for the four villages in Buduran District were classified as safe, namely 0.2 to 1.12 V/m for the electric field and 1 to 130 micro-Tesla for the magnetic field around the 4 villages. The magnetic field and electric field are generated by SUTT, which is 10 meters from the nearest house. So, the Buduran District area is suitable for use as a settlement even though it is passed by SUTT.
