Objective. Numerous studies have been aimed at examining the possible connection between the level of electromagnetic exposure and the frequency of certain health disorders. In order to assess the level of exposure of the population, measurements of electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields were carried out in residential and working areas, in the frequency range from 0 Hz to 3.5 GHz. Methods. The measurements were carried out in areas identified as ,,hot spots", as well as in the immediate vicinity of sources of electromagnetic radiation, including power lines and wireless computer networks. Results. The results of measuring the magnetic field in the vicinity of the Wi-Fi access point at the frequency of 2.4 GHz showed that the measured values were within the permissible limits. The permitted value of the electric field strength for the frequency of 2.4 GHz is E=24.4 V/m, and the measured values were within the permitted limits. The measured power density values for the 2.4GHz frequency were within the permitted limits. The results of measuring the magnetic flux density at a frequency of 50Hz, near the Wi-Fi access point (Bx, By, Bz), calculated for the total value of magnetic field induction, showed that the measured values were within the permissible limits. Conclusions. The results obtained represent the basis for assessing the compliance of the measured values with applicable national and international regulations and recommendations, as well as for considering potential implications for public health.
