B-field Exposure From Induction Cooking Appliances 46
hob use, and pan centered and not. The worst-case exposure depends on the combinations of
pot/hob/appliance. The pots for the worst-case scenarios where chosen experimentally.

6.1.2 Appliance 1
Single-hob measurement using the standard set of pots Figure 35 shows the B-field
measured in the vicinity of appliance 1, with only hob 1 switched on and using standard pot
3 centered and non-centered. The B-field does not exceed the ICNIRP limit (6.25 µT) for a
measuring distance of 30 cm, according to EN50366.
Figures 35 a) to e), f), g) and h) show that the ICNIRP limit is exceeded for measuring
distances of 2, 3, 1 and 3 cm for the front, rear, left and right sides of the appliance, respectively.
Figures 35 i) and j) show the B-field for pot 3 centered and not (front side of the appliance, see
Figure 34 a) ). The ICNIRP limit is exceeded for measuring distances of 2.2 cm and 5.5 cm when
the pot is centered and non-centered, respectively. The maximum B-field values at a measuring
distance of 1 cm are 7.2 µT (pot centered) and 13 µT (pot non-centered).
