The analogy of wind and water wonderfully illustrates the concept of EMI.

If there is a slow and easy breeze moving across the surface of a lake, you will see ripples or small mercurial waves in the water.

When wind velocity and force increase, you will see more turbulent water. This resembles EMI.

The concern about EMI is why your airline pilot calmly orders you to place your phone in “airplane mode.” Cumulative electromagnetic interference from the many cell phones reflecting off hard surfaces inside the cabin could interfere with the computer’s circuitry that controls the landing gear.

EMI is why particular hospital wings will have cell phone-restricted areas.

If you think that your electronics may be affected by EMI, then you are on your way to having your problem solved. We’re here for you from Monday through Friday.

 What is EMF Testing?

An EMF Testing, called an EMF Measurement Survey, is a non-invasive assessment of the electromagnetic fields within a residential or commercial property. It involves a systematic method for measuring and recording non-ionic radiation emitted by the Earth and by various human-made technologies. Measurements are monitored and recorded during a relatively brief period or logged over a longer designated period.

An EMF survey includes a complete assessment of the frequency bandwidth, size, shape, strength (measured as power density in watts per square meter, voltage per cubic meter, or flux density in nanoTeslas or milliGauss), behavior (is the field moving or is it relatively stationary), quality (are there other fields coupled onto the targeted, measured field and what are their characteristics), and the identification of the source-point(s) of each particular EMF field.

An EMF survey is an assessment of the defining characteristics of each electromagnetic field on a property and should include the following:

• Frequency bandwidth within the electromagnetic spectrum. This helps determine attributable effects, aspects, and applications.

• Size dimensions.

• Shape. Rarely is an EMF field in the shape of a box.

• Strength is determined by the relative power density divided by the distance from the source point. The strength of a field is measured, in a unit appropriate to the particular field, in either watts per square meter, volts per meter, or flux density in nanoTeslas or milliGauss

• action; determination of the field’s movement or lack thereof.

• Quality: is the field unadulterated or coupled with other electromagnetic fields from the same or different source points. (Assess each of the coupling fields.)

• Identification of the source point(s) of each particular EMF field.

What is the Purpose of an EMF Measurement Survey?

• Assess a property to develop solutions for the health and safety of its occupants.

• Assess the environment to remediate electromagnetic interference causing electronic malfunctions.

• Assess property to design shielding or other mitigation solutions.

• Assess a building or new construction for the potential of geopathic structural damage.

• Help educate the client and answer all EMF-related questions in layman’s terminology.
