I don't think there ever can be. The number of different products is 
huge and ever-changing, and it's necessary to take into account that a 
product might be faulty and emitting far more than it is supposed to.

I have measured 3 V peak-to-peak of 50 MHz across the neck loop of a 
faulty cellphone accessory intended for communication with hearing aids 
by baseband audio magnetic induction, a function it still performed but 
with a bit more distortion than normal. Cracked SMD capacitor on the 
positive supply rail.

So 'deactivate' (which includes 'switch off' and any other way to 
deactivate) and 'stow'.
