Electric (E) and magnetic field (B) strengths or flux densities were measured at distances of 30 and 50 cm from the screen of video displays at a frequency range from 30 Hz to 1 MHz. The measurement system consisted of an optically coupled active dipole for E-fields, a magnetic field meter, a digital oscilloscope, a portable computer for data storage and a laboratory computer for Fourier analysis of the recorded signals. Comparison of measurement results with available broadband exposure standards or proposed standards indicated that magnetic flux density should be measured at both the (ELF) frequency range from 30 Hz to 300 Hz and at the (RF) frequency range from 10 kHz to 500 kHz. Alternatively, time derivative of magnetic flux density may be measured. Nor should the measurement of the electric field strength at the RF range be neglected. These conclusions, however, are valid only in relative terms. In all cases the exposure is at least one decade below the most stringent exposure limit. The maximum relative exposure 0.077 was obtained by applying the ACGIH standard for magnetic fields at a distance of 30 cm from the screen. The field strengths decrease by a factor varying from 2.5 to 3.5 at a distance of 50 cm, which is a more realistic distance when considering actual working conditions.
