The answer to the question, “Which of the IEC 61000-4-x series are most applicable to FCC / Class B residential equipment?” is “there ain’t none”.
FCC Class B is all about emissions, and as John has pointed out, the 61000-4-xx are techniques and methods of measurement for EMC immunity tests. They contain neither limits nor performance criteria.

The question is about immunity standards, not emission standards.

Subpart B of part 15 addresses “unintentional radiators” like consumer electronics devices commonly found in the home. That subpart also identifies limits for conducted disturbances and RF radiated field strength. It references the methods of measurement provided in CISPR publication 22 (aka standard EN 55022) Ralph From: John Woodgate <mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]> Sent: November 8, 2024 8:41 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [PSES] [Spam] [PSES] IEC 61000-4-x standards.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Good morning EMC experts, Even though we're a provider to N. American markets, this has jumped up at me recently. 1. A partner claims they want compliance to IEC 61000-4-13 (Part 3). a. this is limited to equipment 16A, right? b. what does the title refer to when it says " Mains Signalling at A.C. Power Port " ? 2. Older standards (specially UL 2231-2) call out IEC 61000-4-3 for immunity testing, which I remember from {ahem} a while ago. However, -4-3 isn't on the ANSI Webstore for IEC 61000 series standards - is it still active? Which of the IEC 61000-4-x series are most applicable to FCC / Class B residential equipment? thanks all, Colorado Brian _____ This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
