| Abstract | ||
| Exposure to electromagnetic fields has been a concern for decades, with regulations establishing upper limits. Various standardization bodies have developed regulatory guidelines setting limits to exposure to electromagnetic fields. This work uses the electromagnetic field meter (GQ EMF 390). The device EMF 390 is installed with multiple sensors to ensure maximum range measurement. The faculty of graduate studies and Environmental Research (GSER) was selected as a case study. GSER starts its steps toward sustainability. One of these steps is to measure and evaluate the emission level of the Electric Field (EF), Radiofrequency (RF), and finally Electromagnetic Electric Field (EMF). The results of this work are the room of Staff room-9 (STF9) is more than 80 V/m. The library which had a maximum rate of occupancy, achieve EF of 50 V/m. When the safe limits of EF values ranging from 1-10 V/m. The minimum value of EF (5 V/m) was observed in Staff room-6 (STF6). The IT rooms achieved acceptable RF values, ranging from 0.001–1 mW/m2. The room of the Basic Science Department (BSD) had a value of EMF of 8 mG. Meanwhile, the safe limits and EMF values range from 0.5 to 1 mG. The study explains that the BSD room had high measures of radiation and emission due to the BSD being the nearest room to the electrical panels of GSER. | ||
