This research aims to explore if the electromagnetic fields (EMF) released by numerous domestic appliances
affects the people. There is a typical threshold value for electric and magnetic fields endorsed by the World Health
Organization (WHO). Electro-Magnetic Fields can instigate health risks to a living organism. There has been no such study
performed in Bangladesh on domestic appliances. The data were collected from various home appliances in different
locations in Dhaka, Bangladesh: Baridhara, Shyamoli, Mirpur, and Shakher tek. Both threshold values of electric and
magnetic fields, as well as magnetic field values, were measured for several electrical and electronic appliances. Results
obtained from magnetic field maximum values revealed that in numerous instances the magnetic field released from the
various devices had exceeded the threshold limit.
