Standards
Relevant standards (USA and EC) applicable when working with RF equipment are:
•
ANSI IEEE C95.1-1991, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• Council recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the
general public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz) (1999/519/EC) and
respective national regulations.
•
Directive 2004/40/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April
2004
on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of
workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields) (18th
individual Directive within the meaning of Article 16(1) of Directive 89/391/EEC).
• US FCC limits for the general population. See the FCC web site at
http://www.fcc.gov
, and the policies, guidelines, and requirements in Part 1 of

limites_e.html and Safety Code 6.
• EN 50383:2002 Basic standard for the calculation and measurement of
electromagnetic field strength and SAR related to human exposure from radio
base stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems
(110 MHz - 40 GHz).
• BS EN 50385:2002 Product standard to demonstrate the compliances of radio
base stations and fixed terminal stations for wireless telecommunication systems
with the basic restrictions or the reference levels related to human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic fields (110 MHz – 40 GHz) – general public.
• ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
guidelines for the general public. See the ICNIRP web site at
