Dear all, According to test 18 of E10 of the document Concerning Electrical Installation >from IACS (International Association of Classification Societies), surge test is performed according to IEC 61000-4-5 (no year or edition mentioned). Both line/earth and line/line.
In the E10 there is a reference to figure 10 of the standard for equipment where power and signal lines are identical, which is the case in my situation. Figure 10 of IEC 61000-4-5 1995 is test set-up for unshielded interconnection lines, so that makes some sense. But my cables are shielded, so my question is: Does anybody know it the test should be performed to the shield, or to the inner wires? Regards, and thanks for any input, Niels Hougaard Niels Hougaard Bolls Rådgivning Ved Gadekæret 11F DK-3660 Stenløse Denmark T: +45 48 18 35 66 F: +45 48 18 35 30 [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> www.bolls.dk <http://www.bolls.dk/> - This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
