Abstract

This article discusses the electromagnetic field emitted by stationary computer devices (personal computers and servers): CRT and LCD screen monitors, system units and peripheral equipment such as wireless communication mice and keyboards, direct current suppliers (AC/DC), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and network and electrical supplying cables. Computer devices emit an electromagnetic field from 50 Hz to several GHz. Electromagnetic hazards in the working space near those computer devices do not require individual assessment of the compliance of the level of electromagnetic exposure with the limits provided with respect to the protection of workers against electromagnetic hazards, because the distance between the operator’s body and the equipment is at least 20 cm. This article does not discuss other exposure scenarios such as repairing devices or using portable devices.
