Clause 4.1.3 of EN 55014-1:2006 covers radiated emissions for toys from 30
MHz to 1000 MHz. This test is restricted to toys otherwise disturbance
power is measured on an extended power cord (5.6 m) with an absorbing clamp
in the range of 30 MHz to 300 MHz.

The test is run now using actual auxiliary loads.

Bob,

You are right, that is why I said:

"I believe that if your module passes 55022 class B limits, and also the
next higher level in 55024, your module will probably not contribute to a
failure in the end product."

;-)

I never tested any "toys" so I am not familiar with that. Is that part of
55014 now (or then)?  I do remember there was a section in 55014 covering
internal vibrators, and what was to be used as the auxillary "load" for
test purposes. :-O  And, no, I never had the chance to test any of those.

At the time I was performing tests to 55014, there was a separate standard
for immunity, I believe it was 55104.

Cheers,

Bob Richards, NCT

 There is a "radiated" emissions test for toys and I would advise doing the
 test for all products. The radiated test for 55014-1 is a disturbance
 power
 test mush as you described but I would not come to the conclusion that
 passing EN 55022 Class B would be all right.

 Also EN 55014-1 covers emissions and EN 55014-2 covers immunity.

 limit similarities?


 David,

 It has been a few years since I tested anything to 55014, and I don't have
 access to 55014 now, so what I say may be dated.

 IIRC, Unless the product is a power tool, 55014 has similar conducted
 emissions limits. I believe the average limit is actually higher at
 150kHz,
 but pretty much the same as class B 55022 limits. Power tools have higher
 limits.

 In 55014, there is no "radiated" emissions test. However there is a
 disturbance power test, which covers 30-300 MHz using an absorber clamp to
 measure the emissions on any cables exiting the product. This test is what
 some labs refer to as the "track test", since the absorber clamp has
 wheels, and is moved along some sort of track to maximize the emissions.

 There is a "click" test, or discontinuous disturbance test. This is an
 additional conducted disturbance test for very short duration spikes in
 the
 conducted emissions, due to switching transients that may exist in
 products
 with relays or contactors. It is basically a relaxation of the normal
 conducted QP limits for these transients. The amount of relaxation of the
 limit is based on the click frequency, the fewer clicks the more the limit
 is relaxed.

 Conducted immunity covers up to 230 MHz instead of 80 MHz. There is no
 radiated immunity.

 I believe EFT and surge tests are similar.

 I believe that if your module passes 55022 class B limits, and also the
 next higher level in 55024, your module will probably not contribute to a
 failure in the end product.

 I hope this helps.

 Bob Richards, NCT.
