The IEC 61000-4-17:2019 is an international standard for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing and evaluation of electrical and electronic equipment. It provides guidelines for measuring and assessing the immunity of equipment against conducted disturbances induced by radio frequency fields at power and telecommunication ports.
The IEC 61000-4-17:2019 standard focuses on the conducted disturbances caused by radio frequency electromagnetic fields. These disturbances can occur through various sources, such as nearby communication equipment, power transmission lines, or industrial and domestic appliances. The aim of this standard is to ensure that equipment can function properly even in the presence of such disturbances.
Measurement Techniques
The standard describes measurement techniques for determining the immunity of equipment against conducted disturbances. It provides guidance on test setups, procedures, and evaluation methods. The measurements are performed by injecting signals into the conducted cables connected to the equipment under test. The response of the equipment is then evaluated to determine its immunity level.
Benefits and Applications
Compliance with the IEC 61000-4-17:2019 standard ensures that equipment is reliable and capable of operating in real-world environments where electromagnetic disturbances are common. By conducting tests according to this standard, manufacturers can identify potential vulnerabilities and take necessary measures to improve the immunity of their products. This standard is particularly important for critical systems, such as medical devices, telecommunications equipment, and industrial control systems.
