If anyone knows more, please contribute. The electric field created by a power line would be much stronger than that created by a mobile phone. Also, the lower frequency put out by power lines is more difficult to shield against than cell phone frequencies. Therefore, if your cell phone could damage your circuit, you should only use it in areas that do not have power lines or electrical equipment (the Outback?).
