turned off. The electric field may even increase upon switching off
under certain conditions.
Limit value recommendations up to 2 kHz:
below 1.5 V / m, preferably below 0.3 V / m.
Changing the Battery
If LoBat is visible in the display, the battery should be replaced,
because it may cause a distortion of the measured value.
Universal Applications
For the study of sleeping places, the analysis of electric AC fields is
especially important because it occurs even when loads are
switched off.
Corrective measures
Reduction of AC electric fields
• Unplugging unnecessary extension cords, distribution outlets and
loads.
• Installation of a power-free switch, which automatically separates
the power lines of a circuit from the home from the fuse box of the
network as soon as the final load is switched off. Continuous
loads, for example, the refrigerator, must first be connected to a
separate line.
• Installation of shielded cables for new construction and renovation.
• Insulate walls, posing a particularly strong field lines caused by
conductive plaster and paint. It should be noted that the insulating
material must be properly grounded.
