Abstract

This paper presents some practice considerations in human exposure, together with related safety aspects in ICNIRP, in hearing aids and body wearable medical devices in railway systems. On-board traction power and harmonic currents in the third rail are sources commonly encountered for human exposure, their compliance approach and related EMC requirements are discussed and summarized.
