This International Standard applies to electronic and electrical equipment for which no
dedicated product- or product family standard regarding human exposure to electromagnetic
fields applies.
The frequency range covered is 0 Hz to 300 GHz.
The object of this generic standard is to provide assessment methods and criteria to evaluate
such equipment against basic restrictions or reference levels on exposure of the general
public related to electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields and induced and contact
current.
NOTE This standard is intended to cover both intentional and non-intentional radiators. If the equipment complies
with the requirements in another relevant standard, e.g. EN 50371 covering low power equipment, then the
requirements of this standard (IEC 62311) are considered to be met and the application of this standard to that
equipment is not necessary. See also Clause 7.2.
