guidelines will be published in near future.
2) Ministry of Economy Trade and Industry, Japan introduced a regulation of power frequency
magnetic field (50 and 60 Hz) generated from electric installations of utility company to protect
general public from adverse health effects such as nerve stimulation. The regulation adopted the
ICNIRP guideline (200 micro-T at 50/60 Hz) and came into force March 1, 2012.
3) Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, Japan introduced a regulation of power
frequency magnetic field (50 and 60 Hz) generated from fixed installations in railway field toprotect general public from adverse health effects such as nerve stimulation. The regulation
adopted the ICNIRP guideline (200 micro-T at 50/60 Hz) and came into force August 1, 2012.
