Forum members,
Thanks for your help to everyone you replied to my question. Regards Ian White From: Ian White (UK) Sent: 24 August 2011 10:22 To: IEEE Forum ([email protected]) Subject: EN61000-4-2 questions Forum members, We are testing a product which is made of metal and due to the size of it l have a table top test set up very similar to that shown in Figure 4 of the standard EN61000-4-2:2009. The unit is sitting on insulation 0.5mm thick on the horizontal coupling reference plane. In service this product sits in a steam line and has hardwired earths connected to earth for functional reasons, I have connected these earths to the horizontal coupling plane, is this correct ? The standard does not appear to give any guidance on this matter, but it seems the only logical solution. Thanks for your help.
