Characterization of Levels of Extremely Low Frequency Magnetic Fields Emitted From Portable Hand‐Held Fans

This study aims to assess the levels of extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF‐MF) emitted from portable hand‐held fans (HHFs) and their principal frequency and to identify factors influencing these levels. We collected a total of eleven models of HHF and monitored the ELF‐MF as a function of fan speed and distance from the fan. EMDEX II was used to monitor the ELF‐MF. An SMP2 EMF‐meter equipped with a P400 field probe was used to...
