IEC EN 62233 Measurement Methods for Electromagnetic Fields of Household Appliances and Similar Devices Related to Human Exposure

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 62233 testing. This standard deals with electromagnetic fields up to 300 GHz and defines methods for evaluating electric field strength and magnetic flux density around households and similar electrical devices, as well as measuring conditions, distances and locations during testing.

Devices may include motors, heating elements or combinations thereof, may contain electrical or electronic circuitry, and may be powered from the mains, batteries, or any other electrical power source.

Appliances include equipment such as electrical appliances, power tools, and electrical toys. Appliances that are not intended for normal home use but can still be approached by the public or used by ordinary people are within the scope of this standard.

This standard includes specific elements for assessing human exposure:

• Description of the sensor;
• Definition of measurement methods;
• Description of the operating mode for the device under test;
• Definition of measuring distance and position.

The specified measurement methods are valid between 10 Hz and 400 kHz. Devices in the frequency range above 400 kHz and below 10 Hz within the scope of this standard are considered compliant without testing unless otherwise specified in the IEC 60335 series.
