-----Original Message----- From: Edward Fitzgerald [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2000 9:50 AM To: EMC-PSTC (E-mail) Subject: Thai and Korean EMC/EMI and Safety standards Dear Colleagues, I have just received advanced notification regarding the pending implementation of the following EMC/Safety standards: - The Thai Industrial Standards Institute (TISI) has proposed to enforce TIS 1956-2542 (1999) as a mandatory standard. The standard covers limits for radio disturbance (emissions) of information technology equipment (ITE). Procedures are given for the measurement of the levels of spurious signals generated by the ITE and limits are specified for the frequency range 9 kHz to 400 GHz. I have yet to confirm if this National standard is based upon an International standard, can anyone else confirm this? Korea is intending to introduce the following IEC EMC Immunity and Safety requirements: - IEC 61000-3-3: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 3: Limits - Section 3: Limitation of voltage fluctuations and flicker in low-voltage supply systems for equipment with rated current 16 A IEC 61000-3-2: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 3-2: Limits - Limits for harmonic current emissions (equipment input current 16A per phase) IEC 60536: Classification of electrical and electric equipment with regard to protection against electric shock. I have yet to confirm the timescales for each of the above, if anyone has more detailed information I'd be glad to hear from you.
