Electromagnetic radiation standards
International standards set to limit electromagnetic emissions from monitors. There are currently two
important standards both derived from regulations originally laid down by Swedish authorities.
MPR-II
The standard originally proposed by the Swedish National Board of Measurement and Testing. It set
maximum levels of electromagnetic radiation emitted by monitors, and has now been adopted as a world
standard. MPR-II defines maximum permitted electrostatic, magnetic and electric field levels measured at a
distance of 50 cm from the center of the monitor (see table).
