New BS-EN-61000-4-4 released on Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Testing and measurement techniques – Electrical fast transient/burst immunity test.

BS-EN-61000-4-1:2012, “Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Testing and measurement techniques. Electrical fast transient/burst immunity test,” has just been published and it’s available now from Document Center Inc.   The standard covers the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment to repetitive electrical fast transients.  It gives immunity requirements and test procedures related to electrical fast transients/bursts and additionally defines ranges of test levels and establishes test procedures.

The object of BS EN 61000-4-4 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 British Standard is the UK implementation and official English language edition of EN 61000-4-4:2012.  It is identical to IEC 61000-4-4:2012.  That is, the text of the International Standard IEC 61000-4-4:2012 was adopted by CENELEC as a European Standard without any modification.  The BS EN edition supersedes BS EN 61000-4-4:2004+A1:2010 which will be withdrawn on 4 June 2015.

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.
