New IEC 61000-4-4 Edition 3.0 just released for Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Part 4-4: Testing and measurement techniques – Electrical fast transient/burst immunity test

IEC 61000-4-4, “Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Part 4-4: Testing and measurement techniques – Electrical fast transient/burst immunity test,” and is now available from Document Center Inc. in paper and pdf format.  Additionally, there’s a Redline Package available which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.

IEC 61000-4-4:2012 relates to the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment to repetitive electrical fast transients. It has the status of a basic EMC publication in accordance with IEC Guide 107. It gives immunity requirements and test procedures related to electrical fast transients/bursts. It additionally defines ranges of test levels and establishes test procedures.

The object of this standard is to establish a common and reproducible reference in order to evaluate the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to electrical fast transient/bursts on supply, signal, control and earth ports.

The test method documented in this standard describes a consistent method to assess the immunity of an equipment or system against a defined phenomenon.

This 87-page third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2004 and its amendment 1 (from 2010). It constitutes a technical revision which improves and clarifies simulator specifications, test criteria and test setups.
