CLC/TC 106X Electromagnetic fields in the human environment
European Norm
13.280 Radiation protection
Published
The object of this generic standard is to provide a route for evaluation of such equipment against limits on human exposure to electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields, and induced and contact current.
This standard applies to electronic and electrical equipment for which no dedicated product- or product family standard, or standard relating to low power equipment, regarding human exposure to electromagnetic fields exists. If such a standard does exist then it shall be used and this standard shall not.
The frequency range covered is 0 Hz to 300 GHz.
This standard is intended to cover both intentional and non-intentional radiators.
It should be noted that the supplier of a specific piece of equipment might not know the overall exposure environment in which the equipment is being used. This product standard can only assess the human exposure from the specific equipment under evaluation.
Other standards can apply to products covered by this document. In particular this document is not designed to evaluate the electromagnetic compatibility with other equipment; nor does it reflect any product safety requirements other than those specifically related to human exposure to electromagnetic fields.
