Abstract
A review is presented of the studies associated with radio-frequency ignition hazards which have been undertaken since the production of the first British Standard (BS 4992) on this subject in 1974. Initially a brief review is given of the major assumptions used in this standard and its draft revision of 1976 and, then, the research and tests carried out between 1977 and 1981 are discussed in detail. Finally the prime findings relevance to the production of a new standard summarised.
