- Limit value
- 250,400–1,252,000 µW/m²Regulatory value — legally enforceable — The range is the band edges: 0.2504 W/m² at 400 MHz to 1.2520 W/m² at 2000 MHz. The ordinance itself gives 0.5635 W/m² = 14.57 V/m at 900 MHz as its worked example, and sets 0.2497 W/m² for 0.1–400 MHz and 1.2539 W/m² for 2–300 GHz. The limit applies at no moment to be exceeded, not as a time average.sources: brussels-ordinance-2007
