## Key values

- **Limit value:** 4–6 V/m — Regulatory value — legally enforceable — 4 V/m for installations operating below ~900 MHz, 6 V/m above ~1.8 GHz, 5 V/m for mixed-band installations. 6 V/m ≈ 95,500 µW/m² via S = E²/377. [ch-onir]
- **Quantity:** electric field strength
- **Frequency band:** mobile service bands
- **Population:** sensitive
- **Set by:** Swiss ONIR / NISV installation limit values (2000, as amended)
- **Kind:** Regulatory — legally enforceable
