Description

IEEE C95.1 Edition – IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz

Revision Standard – Superseded.IEEE C95.1-1991 gives recommendations to prevent harmful effects in human beings exposed to electromagnetic fields in the frequency range from 3 kHz to 300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 ofpractitioners of the healing arts. The induced and contact current limits of IEEE C95.1-1991 aremodified in this edition. In addition, field strengths below which induced and contact currents donot have to be measured are specified, spatial averaging and measurement distance requirements areclarified, and more precise definitions for averaging volume and radiated power are provided.
