Abstract

Enforcement of Directive 40/2004/EC binds the EU member countries to define their legislative proceedings on the minimum health and safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents (electromagnetic fields). However, present applicable standards and technical recommendations do not indicate any particular method for determination and evaluation of low-frequency electromagnetic fields in working areas. In this paper guidelines for determination and evaluation of low-frequency electromagnetic fields in working areas inside distribution power stations are proposed. They are based on experiences gained with research calculations and measurements and are compliable with measurement practice and demands of international labour conventions, EU Directives and Slovenian legislation.
