Abstract
During the last decade, European methodologies on electromagnetic field measurement and human exposure assessment have
been extensively developed and improved. At present, there is a large number of complex technical standards dedicated to various
exposure situations. The implementation of the new methodology in the national practice might be difficult, expensive and time
consuming. Taking into account the methodological change, we analyzed some practical difficulties that might occur and we
emphasised some other limitations that might alter the quality of measurements. In this paper the authors propose a strategy based
on a specific methodological approach and administrative measures to reduce implementation difficulties and to improve the
quality of electromagnetic field measurements. Some simplified methods for checking compliance of complex electromagnetic
environments with the requirements of exposure standards are proposed and the opportunity of using alternative methods is
discussed.
