[Histonet] CAP Question ANP.27720 Microwave Leakage

[Smith Wanda]

Good Morning Histonetters,
I have a question about a question on the CAP Checklist.  We are doing our Self-Evaluation and one of the new questions ANP.27720 "Are microwave devices monitored at least annually to ensure that there is less than 5mW/cm2 leakage at a distance of 5 cm from the surface?"
Question:  Who takes the measurement???  My Biomed Departmet does not and neither does my Engineering Department!!!  I'm not sure where to go from here, so I thought.....THE HISTONET!!!!!!!!!
Please Help!
