Full Description

Scope

Develop revised maximum permissible exposure (MPE) levels for exposures to electromagnetic fields for exposures in controlled and uncontrolled environments at frequencies between 3 kHz and 300 Ghz. The MPEs will be expressed in terms of quantifiable parameters such as electric-field strength, magnetic-field strength, power density, induced current and contact current. Exclusions and peak limits for pulsed fields will be included.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Superseded.IEEE C95.1-1991 gives recommendations to prevent harmful effects in human beings exposed to electromagnetic fields in the frequency range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz. The recommendations are intended to apply to exposures in controlled, as well as uncontrolled, environments. They are not intended to apply to the purposeful exposure of patients under the direction of practitioners of the healing arts. The induced and contact current limits of IEEE C95.1-1991 are modified in this edition. In addition, field strengths below which induced and contact currents do not have to be measured are specified, spatial averaging and measurement distance requirements are clarified, and more precise definitions for averaging volume and radiated power are provided.
