Dear Electricity Authority,

I request information on exposure limits in the workplace for frequencies of the radio spectrum. This would be for various radio frequencies 600MhZ and up.

Would you please share the information you know about this? For example the watts per square meter exposure limit? or SAR limit?

Yours faithfully,
