.
These exposure limits have been incorporated into the Spanish legal system by Royal Decree 1066/2001, of September 28, which approves the Regulation that establishes conditions for the protection of the public radioelectric domain, restrictions on radioelectric emissions and protection measures. health against radio emissions.
