Evaluation of electric current exposure of hand in current perception threshold measurement

Concern has been raised in recent years regarding the effect of exposure to electromagnetic fields in the intermediate frequency band on human health. The study of indirect effects, such as contact current hazards, is insufficient. Therefore, the authors have been measuring the current perception threshold in the intermediate frequency range. In this study, a simulation experiment of current perception threshold measurements was conducted to clarify the relationship between the current perception threshold and the current density and/or in situ electric field.
