Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). Generic standards. Immunity for industrial environments (British Standard)
This part of IEC 61000 for EMC immunity requirements applies to electrical and electronicapparatus intended for use in industrial environments, as described below. Immunityrequirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No tests need to beperformed at frequencies where no requirements are specified.This generic EMC immunity standard is applicable if no relevant dedicated product or product-family EMC immunity standard exists.This standard applies to apparatus intended to be connected to a power network supplied from a high or medium voltage transformer dedicated to the supply of an installation feeding manufacturing or similar plant, and intended to operate in or in proximity to industrial locations, as described below. This standard applies also to apparatus which is battery operated and intended to be used in industrial locations.The environments encompassed by this standard are industrial, both indoor and outdoor.Industrial locations are in addition characterised by the existence of one or more of the following:– industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) apparatus (as defined in CISPR 11);– heavy inductive or capacitive loads are frequently switched;– currents and associated magnetic fields are high.The object of this standard is to define immunity test requirements for apparatus defined inthe scope in relation to continuous and transient, conducted and radiated disturbances, including electrostatic discharges.
