Abstract | ||||
Power frequency electromagnetic fields are receiving growing attention in recent years because of concerns that exposure to such fields might cause or contribute to adverse health effects. This paper reviewed the international limits for electromagnetic field exposure. Also this paper presented the problem with existing standards limits for electromagnetic field exposure and showed that these limits are not safety for public health risks. As a case study was investigated and evaluated to assess the power frequency electromagnetic fields exposure from electrical equipments, transmission lines and LED display in commercial building according to existing and the suggested healthy limits. | ||||
