IEEE C95.7-2005

This recommended practice presents guidelines and procedures that can form the basis of a radio frequency exposure safety program (RFSP) that provides guidance for controlling hazards associated with RF sources that operate in the frequency range of 3 kHz to 300 GHz This is a general-purpose document intended for application in most RF exposure scenarios with the goal of avoiding potentially hazardous exposures to electromagnetic fields, currents, and/or contact voltages. In some complex cases, however, the required elements of an adequate RFSP may exceed those described in this document. In such cases, additional guidance may be necessary to effect a satisfactory RF safety solution. There are many ways of accomplishing the goal of a satisfactory RF safety program. While this recommended practice outlines certain schemes for providing a safe environment for persons who may be exposed to excessive levels of electromagnetic energy, other schemes may be equally effective.
