Hi, does anybody see a problem if the test sw is set to do a single positive pulse to L-N, then L1-N, L2-N and so forth until all specified coupling paths have been done, then repeat so that the required # of pulses per path is achieved. Then repeat the same with negative pulses.
This would allow shortening the time between individual pulses from the 1 min since the same insulation is not not stressed immediately again.

We currently do and it is the way that at least 3 different automation software packages setup the test for 61000-4-5 by default. -Doug From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carpentier Kristiaan Sent: Wednesday, September 23, 2009 8:49 AM To: John J Radomski Cc: EMC PSTC Subject: RE: IEC61000-4-5 reversed polarity or not John, Cl 6.1.1 says “positive & negative” but not between consecutive pulses. I ask because some labs do testing +++++ then -----.

Yes it is. This can be found in Cl. 6.1.1.

IEC61000-4-5 does not state that requirement. Is it common practice to reverse polarity in this standard as well?
