Full Description

Scope

This standard presents the required elements for the development, implementation, and administration of electromagnetic energy (EME) safety programs (SPs), in the frequency range of 0 Hz to 300 GHz. SPs can help mitigate established health and safety risks that might arise from unintended interaction of electromagnetic fields (EMFs), currents, and/or contact voltages with a) people (human exposure), and/or b) electronics, materials, substances, or structures (concomitant EME hazards).This standard uses compliance with appropriate limits, as well as design and operational practices, as the criteria for the required mitigation where the use of EME might result in exceeding the EME exposure limits specified in the SP scope. Compliance limits are not defined in this standard but are expected to be specified in the SP scope based on regulations, other standards, guidelines, or analyses of science/engineering knowledge.This standard provides examples to assist the development of site-specific or environment-specific SPs.

Purpose

The purpose of this standard is to:--Complement the International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES) IEEE C95™ family of standards on electromagnetic safety--Provide a framework for the development, implementation, and maintenance of EME safety programs that:• Specifies practices for managing compliance with applicable EME limits for qualified individuals (QIs) and the general public.• Is applicable internationally by enabling SPs to integrate the requirements of EME health and safety regulations, standards, guidelines of the authrority having jurisdiction.• Can address other established EME hazards, called “concomitant EME hazards,” such as medical device interference or EME operations potentially affecting explosive material or flammable atmosphers in the vicinity of an EME source

Abstract

Revision Standard - Active.The required elements for developing, implementing, and administering effective electromagnetic energy (EME) safety programs (SPs) to achieve compliance with applicable human exposure limits are specified. Concomitant EME hazards, such as those caused by interference to medical devices, ignition of flammable atmospheres, and detonation of explosive devices, are also addressed. Well-established safety processes are used to manage potential EME hazards from known EME sources in the 0 Hz to 300 GHz frequency range. SP elements for identifying EME hazard locations, implementing needed controls, and training personnel, are included. Additional descriptions and examples of the SP elements and various factors that can be helpful when assessing potential hazards and creating SPs are annexed.(NOTE: The PDF of this standard is available at no charge via the IEEE GET program, compliments of the United States Air Force, United States Army, United States Navy, and United States Marine Corps https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/get-program/page/series?id=82)
