It isn't - there's an option to raise it onto the table if it can be done safely, otherwise it's put on a low non-conductive support and tested as it is. That part of the EUT will be illuminated, but not fully

In fact, the version I have is IEC 1000-4-6, and it is presently boxed up and inaccessible. But there remains one question I thought inherent in my original post, but either left unanswered, or I'm not getting it. The equipment is floor-standing. How is the portion from the floor up to 80 cm above the floor properly illuminated in the test facility? This equipment will not be tested in situ.

The tests can be modified as appropriate or necessary for the equipment under test as long as rationale and procedures are well documented. This is perfectly acceptable under the TCF route to compliance with the EMC Directive. After all, presumption of conformity is established by applying the harmonized standards or through the TCF route when harmonized standards cannot be applied or can only be applied in part. While a Notified Body is no longer needed to approve a TCF, I would recommend that an accredited test organization with EU recognition and experience in in-situ testing be used.

That won't work for all products so an alternative approach is discussed in EUANB TGN 27 on on-site testing of large machines http://www.rtteca.com/EUANB%20TGN%2027%20on%20on-site%20testing%20of%20large%20machines.pdf regards Charlie From: Ken Javor [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 14 November 2012 06:52 To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [PSES] EN 61000-4-3 for large industrial equipment How is the field intensity established outside the 1.5 meter square area UFA?
