This paper focuses on the performances of TEM cells when used in the calibration of power frequency environmental electric field meters. The spatial non-uniformity of the electric field inside a TEM cell is analyzed through experimental investigations and three-dimensional Boundary Element modeling to evaluate the field experienced by the sensing elements of actual 3D meter probes. The perturbation caused by the probe support is also taken into account. The uncertainty component associated with the spatial non-uniformity in the volume taken up by typical power and low frequency field probes is estimated. The field non-uniformity is also evaluated in relation to the use of TEM cells of reduced size. Finally, the field non-uniformity is exploited to predict the performance of an actual field meter operating in significant field gradients.
