Assessing Risk, Designing Responsibly
Electric and magnetic fields (EMF) are an unavoidable consequence of high-voltage power infrastructure—but their impact shouldn’t be underestimated. At MISI Consulting, we help clients understand, quantify, and mitigate EMF exposure through precise modelling and compliance assessments, ensuring safe outcomes for people and the environment.
Why EMF Analysis Matters
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are a natural by-product of high-voltage infrastructure, such as substations, transmission lines, and industrial facilities.
While often unseen, unmanaged EMF can pose serious risks to people and equipment. EMF analysis is essential for understanding, predicting, and controlling these fields to ensure that systems are safe and compliant

Early-Stage Advisory:
Identify and resolve compliance issues before construction begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are electric and magnetic fields (EMF)?
EMFs are generated by electrical devices and power systems. At extremely low frequencies (ELF), electric and magnetic fields behave independently and have unique interactions with their environment
Why are people concerned about EMF?
EMF is invisible and often misunderstood, people naturally have questions about safety. Our team applies engineering-based design, smart infrastructure layout, and strict compliance with international standards to ensure exposure remains well below recognised health limits — protecting both personnel and the general public.
What standards are used to assess EMF?
We evaluate EMF levels against internationally recognised guidelines, including those from ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and ARPANSA (Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency).
Can EMF be mitigated or reduced?
Yes. Through proper design, placement, and shielding strategies, EMF exposure levels can be kept well within safe thresholds.
