What is BS EN 50647- Evaluation of workers' exposure to electric and magnetic fields about?

BS EN 50647 is a European standard that discusses the evaluation of workers' exposure to electric and magnetic fields. BS EN 50647 provides the ba sic standard for the evaluation of workers' exposure to electric and magnetic fields from equipment and installations for the production, transmission, and distribution of electricity to ensure the safety of workers from radiation hazards. BS EN 50647 provides a general procedure to assess workers’ exposure to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) in workplaces associated with the production, transmission, and distribution of electric energy, and to demonstrate compliance with exposure limit values and action levels as stated in the Council and European Parliament “EMF” Directive 2013/35/EU. The frequency range of BS EN 50647 covers from DC to 20 kHz, which is sufficient to include the power frequency used for electric power supply systems throughout Europe (50 Hz) and the various harmonics and inter-harmonics occurr...
