EMC SURVEYING

We are EMC surveyors that identify and then help you to resolve the issues surrounding electrically generated interference. Power lines, computers, airport radar, substations, transformers and many other appliances can be a major cause of electromagnetic pollution. EMI interferes with the efficient operation of technology and possibly be the cause of some adverse health side effects.

Clients include BSKYB, British Aerospace, Civil Aviation Authority, Land Rover, Ericsson, Merrill Lynch, HSBC Investment Bank, Royal Mail and Vodaphone.

EMC Survey

  • EMF surveys of overhead lines in conjunction with calculation of EMF from an alternative buried cabling arrangement to enable determination of minimum distances for safe location of housing.  Such an exercise enables a developer to decide whether the increase in building density (and no unsightly overhead lines) is sufficient to cover the cost of undergrounding any overhead lines crossing a development.  Optimum configuration of buried cabling can provide a significant reduction to any resultant EMF radiation signature.
  • Electromagnetic field environmental health site surveys/studies with results compared to UK/European limits (and to childhood leukaemia studies when required).
  • Television interference studies and surveys including all aspects of interference mitigation.
  • Cellular telephone base station environmental health surveys & studies.

EMC Studies

  • Building electrical power system interference studies. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) surveys/studies & radio frequency Interference (RFI) site surveys/studies.
  • Specialist extended period EMF surveys for the siting of very sensitive equipment such as MRI and SEM research/medical equipment (equipment sensitive to the very smallest of magnetic fields).  Such equipment is sensitive to the passage of underground trains, nearby movement of ferrous objects and residual radiation from building wiring systems.
  • Telecommunications environmental impact assessments related to new developments, particularly tall buildings and/or metallic structures such as warehouse or distribution buildings (primarily for the protection of developers against bogus claims for television improvement measures).
Cellular Base Station

Related Health Concerns

Cellular base stations of the type shown located close to residential dwellings have been known to cause headaches and general feelings of being unwell in some people. There are also the ongoing questions related to the possibility of childhood leukaemia.
