Table 7. 2. Limit values for health effects upon exposure to internal electric field strength (E) from 1 Hz to 10 MHz

Frequency rate, fLimit values for health effects [Vm-1]
1 Hz ≤ f < 3 kHz1.1
3 kHz ≤ f ≤ 10 MHz3.8 x 10-4 f
Note 7.2-1: f is the frequency in hertz [Hz].
Note 7.2-2: Limit values for health effects upon exposure to internal electric field strength are local peak values in the body of the exposed individual.
Note 7.2-3: Limit values for health effects are peak values in time corresponding to Root-Mean-Square, the RMS values multiplied by √2 for sinusoidal fields. For non-sinusoidal fields, the exposure assessment shall be based on the method using weighted peak value (filtration during the period). Other scientifically documented and recognised methods may be used to assess exposure if they give corresponding and comparable results.
