Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Part 4-4: Testing and measurement techniques – Electrical fast transient/burst immunity testReleased on March 26, EN 61000-4-4:2004/A1:2010 establishes a common and reproducible reference for evaluating 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 part of EN 61000-4 describes a consistent method to assess the immunity of an equipment or system against a defined phenomenon. The standard defines: test voltage waveform; range of test levels; test equipment; verification procedures of test equipment; test set-up; test procedure. The standard gives specifications for laboratory and post-installation tests. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1995 and its amendments 1 (2000) and 2 (2001) and constitutes a technical revision.Read more at the CENELEC website.
