Electrical Fields Testing and Inspections For Buffalo NY and WNY

This type of EMF called Electrical fields is measured with an electrical field meter. Unlike other types of radiation, the only safe way to remove yourself from the magnetic fields it produces, is to create distance between you and the object creating the field. Clear EMF in Buffalo, NY will test and inspect your home or office for electrical fields.

Electric fields arise from voltage. Their strength is measured in volts per meter (V/m). An electric field can be present even when a device is switched off. Field strength decreases with distance from the source. Most building materials shield electric fields to some extent.

Electric fields are produced by voltage. Voltage is the pressure behind the flow of electricity. It can be likened to the pressure of water in a hose. Electricity in UK homes is at a voltage of 230 volts (V), but outside homes it is distributed at higher voltages, from 11,000 volts (usually written 11kV) up to 400,000 volts (400 kV). Generally, the higher the voltage, the higher the electric field. Electric fields are measured in volts per metre (V/m).

The World Health Organization (WHO) states:

Most electric power operates at a frequency of 50 or 60 cycles per second, or hertz (Hz). Close to certain appliances, the magnetic field values can be of the order of a few hundred microtesla. Underneath power lines, magnetic fields can be about 20 µT and electric fields can be several thousand volts per metre. However, average residential power-frequency magnetic fields in homes are much lower - about 0.07 µT in Europe and 0.11 µT in North America. Mean values of the electric field in the home are up to several tens of volts per metre.
