Conversion Formula
mG = µT × 10
About Microteslas
The microtesla (µT) equals 10⁻⁶ T. Earth's surface magnetic field is approximately 25-65 µT; the WHO recommends 100 µT as an occupational limit for 50/60 Hz fields; metal detectors and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) tests routinely work in the µT range. 1 µT = 10⁻⁶ T = 10 mG.
About Milligausses
The milligauss (mG) equals 10⁻⁷ T. The dominant unit in EMF (electromagnetic field) health and safety assessments: ICNIRP and IEEE C95.1 reference levels for power-frequency (50/60 Hz) public exposure limits are expressed in mG or µT; typical residential power-line exposure is 0.2-5 mG. 1 mG = 10⁻⁷ T = 0.1 µT.
