Summary: Radio frequency readings within living spacesabove 1 mW/m² (milliWatt per square meter) are considered high. Other than the Trifield TF2, the Cornet ED88T might be one of the most popular EMF meters on the market. In terms of features and price, it’s actually quite similar to the TF2, but there are a few reasons I’ve ranked it a bit lower. All in all, it’s a quality meter by a great company that I don’t think you’ll be disappointed with. This article needs additional citations for verification.

So, for now, it would appear that likely the most credible reading for dangerous levels of magnetic fields is likely anything above 1 mG. Audio –One of my absolute favorite additions of the Trifield TF2 is the audio output. Although if you’re trying to determine actual EMF radiation levels of certain things, you will want the field indicator, if you are just trying to move around your home and locate EMF radiation sources, the audio is fantastic. Using the audio, you don’t even need to look at the display. Also, since the TF2 is a tri-axis EMF meter, directionality doesn’t matter for the display, or for the audio output.

I recommend EMF meters in many of the articles here on EMF Academy, and for what I think is a very good reason. If you’re here, reading this article, I’m going to assume you already have a baseline understanding that EMF radiation from devices like your cell phone, laptop, tablet, etc is dangerous. Although there are only five on this list, there are plenty more to choose from, if none of these options interest you. The five above are some of the most popular and highly rated EMF meters on the internet, you can still make your own choices on what you think is the top choice.

The difference between ideal dipole radiation pattern and real probe pattern is called isotropic deviation. With it being a 1-axis meter, there are limitations on both the weighted and standard readings. For somewhat accurate readings we would recommend setting the meter down and stepping away as far as you can while still being able to read it. You’ll then need to repeat this so that you have the X, Y, and Z axes taken into consideration. So let’s break down what we mean by “High EMF Meter Reading” first. There are so many meters on the market, and all of them max out at different amounts, and many even use different units of measurement. So, for the purpose of the post, we’re really going to just talk about the dangerous levels of the magnetic field, electric field, and radio frequency radiation.Here on EMF Academy, I have all sorts of guides on how to lower EMF radiation risk in your house, such as my Whole House EMF Protection Guide.These guides offer tons of solutions to lower your exposure, but without an EMF meter, it is difficult to get a real understanding of how much radiation exposure you actually reduced. To Summarize the entire article, these are the numbers that I feel are high EMF meter reading for the following forms of EMF Radiation: So, you just got a brand new EMF meter and you’re walking around the house measuring stuff. The meter is making noises, lights are flashing, numbers are appearing on the screen, and you’re asking yourself, “What is a high EMF meter reading?” or “Are these readings at dangerous levels?” These are great questions, and in this post, I want to break it down for you and explain what a high reading is, and why we should be concerned when we get numbers above those readings.

Slight Concern – As a precaution and especially with regard to sensitive and ill people, remediation should be carried out whenever it is possible. At least five new cell tower studies are reporting bioeffects in the range of 0.003 to 0.05 μW/cm2 at lower levels than reported in 2007 (0.05 to 0.1 uW/cm2 was the range below which, in 2007, effects were not observed). Researchers report headaches, concentration difficulties and behavioral problems in children and adolescents; and sleep disturbances, headaches and concentration problems in adults. Public safety standards are 1,000 – 10,000 or more times higher than levels now commonly reported in mobile phone base station studies to cause bioeffects.” I would say that this is just about the perfect starter EMF Meter for home or business use, and in my personal opinion just about everyone should have one. A spike on the 'radio/microwave' reading could indicate your Wi-Fi router or smartphone is quite active. Consider turning off Wi-Fi when not in use or keeping your phone further away.

RS has a range of EMF testers suitable for home and office use. The frequency to which EMF testers measure the EM field is very important. Most EMF testers are constructed to measure a frequency range of 30Hz to 60Hz, which are some of the most commonly used electrical frequencies. However, there are EMF testers that can measure above and below this range to suit your application needs. What applications are EMF Meters used in? Like many of us these days, you've got a home office setup. You've got your computer, maybe an extra monitor or two, the Wi-Fi router buzzing away in the corner, and your phone on the desk. It's prime EMF territory.

As an example, it can be used as a probe which senses the Electric field component parallel to the direction of its axis of symmetry. In these conditions, where E is the amplitude of incident electric field, and θ is the amplitude of the angle between sensor axis and direction of electric field E, the signal detected is proportional to |E|cos θ ( right). This allows obtainment of the correct total amplitude of the field in the form of Dirty Electricity is an entirely different, although equally important, subject. Dirty electricity is essentially leftover electricity that was not able to be utilized because modern electronics alter the electricity they receive from the wiring in your home. This electricity then sits in your wiring, emitting large amounts of EMF radiation.Through these scenarios, it becomes evident that the Trifield Meter is more than just a gadget - it's an essential tool for just about anyone. Size – Next, the device is relatively bulky. I’m hoping that future models are designed a little bit slimmer and sleeker. The TriField EMF Meter is an AC gaussmeter, AC electric field meter, and radio power density meter in a single unit, that combines all the features needed for fast, accurate measurements of electromagnetic fields (EMF). In addition to standard AC measurement modes, a special frequency weighted mode will properly scale the magnetic and electric measurements to indicate the full magnitude of currents produced by each type of field inside the human body. 9V Battery required. Yes, the Trifield will come with a manual in the box, or you can see a pdf copy here Final Thoughts
