An electromagnetic field (EMF) meter measures electromagnetic waves and displays the results in various units, including volts (V), millivolts (mV), watts (W), milliwatts (mW), Gauss (G), milligauss (mG), millitesla (mT), microtesla (µT), or nanotesla (nT). EMF meters can detect either static (DC) permanent magnetic fields, such as those from rare-earth magnets, dynamic (AC) electromagnetic fields, or both. To ensure the meter meets your specific needs, it is crucial to review its specifications carefully before purchase.
