Dirty Electricity Line EMI Monitor
Measure electromagnetic interference and test your dirty electricity exposure
This Dirty Electricity Monitor measures electromagnetic interference.
Measure in a single-phase AC power line.
Its OLED screen displays AC voltage and noise voltage.
The speaker emits a sound that increases according to the intensity of the frequency.
The more electro interference the louder the sound from the monitor.
The EMI monitor can be used to detect dirty electricity levels.
Check your home and any other environments with electric sockets.
Dirty electricity can tamper the correct functioning of sensitive electrical equipment.
DE emits electromagnetic fields (EMF) and has been associated with a wide range of health issues.
The more dirty electricity on your wiring, the more EMF in your space.
The Line EMI Dirty Electricity Monitor is a great tool to test dirty electricity filters.
You can clearly see the difference the filters make in reducing unwanted electrical noise.
You can hear the monitor noise decrease as dirty electricity filters are plugged in.
Plug it into a power socket and the electronic display will show readings
in millivolts (mV), a standard electrical unit of measure.
How the monitor works
When you plug the monitor into a wall socket (no battery is required)
Electromagnetic interference EMI is displayed.
The monitor immediately displays total line noise in millivolts
(range 1999 mV, resolution 1 mV)
In the frequency range 10 kHz–10 MHz
(the frequency limits at which sensitivity is half of the maximum sensitivity).
A speaker plays the sound of the electromagnetic interference EMI, with amplitude demodulated.
This identifies electromagnetic interference EMI sources such as AM or shortwave radio frequency.
The dimensions of the device are 132 x 91 x 41mm and it weighs 150g.
It comes with a detachable two-core power 0.8 m-length cord.
Iit plugs into any electrical outlet.

Questions
What is a recommended EMI level?
Ideally, dirty electricity (EMI) levels should be below 25 millivolts (mV).
Levels between 25 and 50 mV are marginal and should be reduced if possible.
Levels above 50 mV are undesirable and steps should be taken to lower them.
What voltage does this work with?
The TriField Dirty Electricity EMI Meter can be used to measure dirty electricity
on 50/60 Hz AC circuits with a voltage anywhere between 100 V and 240 V.
Will this work in my country?
The meter is compatible with 50/60 Hz AC electrical circuits
with a voltage anywhere between 100 V and 240 V.
This means it can be used in many countries around the world with the correct adapter.
This will ship with a UK adapter.
What are the dimensions of the device?
5.2 in x 3.6 in x 1.6 in; 132 mm x 91 mm x 41 mm
Can I return it?

Do you offer support?
Yes. We provide free technical support and advice from experienced EMF shielding experts.
What causes dirty electricity?
Dirty electricity is caused by various factors that introduce unwanted
high-frequency electromagnetic signals into the electrical wiring system.
The top 6 sources of dirty electricity in homes and buildings include:
1. Smart electrical loads and modern devices:
Many modern appliances and electronics manipulate standard AC electricity,
turning the power on and off rapidly, which creates irregular surges and higher frequencies.
2. Switching mechanisms:
Nonlinear loads that use sophisticated switching mechanisms to convert AC to DC
and vice versa, often operating at frequencies up to 300kHz.
3. Electronic ballasts:
Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs (CFLs) contain electronic ballasts
that convert standard AC to DC and then to high-frequency AC,
creating surges of dirty electricity.
4. Power line modulation equipment and switching power supplies:
These devices can introduce electrical interference that contaminates the power supply.
5. Smart meters:
When connected to a circuit, they can manipulate the current
and cause spikes and surges of higher frequencies.
6. Substandard wiring:
Poor quality or improperly installed wiring can generate dirty electricity.
What is dirty electricity?
Dirty electricity is a form of electromagnetic pollution.
It can radiate through walls into living spaces,
potentially causing various health issues and reducing the efficiency of power supply.
Exposure to dirty electricity has been linked to a variety of health issues, including chronic diseases and neurological symptoms. Studies associate DE with conditions such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Neurological effects include headaches, fatigue, cognitive impairment, anxiety, and sleep disturbances, as well as potential links to neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Dirty electricity may also trigger chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune responses, which can lead to cellular damage, hormonal imbalances, and mood disorders.
How to reduce dirty electricity exposure?
Install dirty electricity filters:
These devices plug into outlets and help smooth out high-frequency transients.
Use power strips with built-in EMI filters:
This can help reduce electromagnetic interference at the source.
Choose cleaner lighting options:
Opt for incandescent or LED bulbs instead of CFLs, which are known to produce dirty electricity.
Unplug electronics when not in use:
This reduces both dirty electricity and energy consumption.
Create distance:
Keep electronic devices away from your body, especially while sleeping.
Use wired connections:
Opt for Ethernet cables instead of Wi-Fi when possible to reduce overall EMF exposure.
Assess and monitor:
Use specialized meters to measure high-frequency transients
and identify problem areas in your home or workplace.
Upgrade or modify equipment:
Choose electronic devices designed to minimize electromagnetic emissions
or retrofit existing equipment with additional filters.
Optimize electrical wiring:
Ensure proper installation, grounding, and maintenance of electrical infrastructure.
Consider whole-house filtering systems for comprehensive protection against dirty electricity.
Turn off circuit breakers:
For non-critical areas like bedrooms at night, this can significantly reduce exposure.
By implementing these strategies, you can create a cleaner electrical environment
and potentially reduce the health risks associated with dirty electricity exposure.
How many filters do I need?
Every home and room is different and will require a different number.
In our experience, it takes approximately two filters for each frequently-used room.
This may increase for technically equipped offices and entertainment / TV rooms.
You can test your dirty electricity exposure accurately with a monitor.
This will show you if you need more filters or fewer.
Using a DE monitor to test how many filters you need
To test for dirty electricity, follow the instructions that come with the monitor.
You plug the monitor in first, then add the DE filters to the electric sockets.
The numbers on the monitor should reduce as you add the filters.
Continue to add the filters to the sockets in the room,
until the monitor displays a number in the safe range.
You can find these numbers in the instructions that come with the monitor.
