Rich, I have a few more questions about the standard I would like you to consider; There are four observation periods listed in para 6.2.4 of A14 (table Z1), I assume that I only have to pick the one that suitably qualifies my equipment's operation, or must I apply each one to determine the best

Re: GTEM use

Mat, A GTEM can be very useful as long as its limitations are understood. It is clearly a good precompliance engineering tool. You can get an emissions readout in 15 minutes. We use our GTEM for radiated Immunity and radiated emissions. We have a software package that correlates

RE: TCF's

John, What if the installation has variants, do the tests have to be repeated, or is it sufficient to compile a new TCF describing the changes. Thanks, William D'Orazio CAE Electronics Ltd. Electrical System Designer Phone: (514) 341-2000 (X4555) Fax: (514)340-5552 Email: dora...@cae.ca

Cortland, the Directives require that products be compliant with the essential requirements. Compliance with voluntary harmonized standards provides for the presumption of compliance, but application of the standards is not mandatory. Optionally, one may apply any solution to demonstrate complianc

Hi all, I'm looking to perform Lightning testing to RTCA DO-160, and I'm not finding a lot of test equipment out there. In fact the best is from Solar with a 1 to 2 month lead time. I like the equipment, but is there any suggestions on other potential vendors, or on how to build my own? Than

For the sake of brevity (?) I am going to try and keep it simple . . . For one example a TCF (Technical Contruction File) is useful for a company that has numerous products in a product 'family'/ For instance, there may be a dozen variations based on one design (i.e. printed circuit board partial

Hi all; Does anyone know where one might be able to match appropriate EMC standards with radio devices? For example, for 2.4GHZ equipment subject to ETS 300 328 or (EN 300 328 when they get around to publishing it), the EMC standard is ETS 300 826. I am particularly looking for the EMC standard

Jim, Here is my interpretation: 1. Yes, i.e. EN61000-3-2 specifies on page 29 supply source as 230V for single phase or 400V for three phase +-2% and for 50Hz +-0.5%. 2. No, line to line is 400V. Line to neutral is 230V. I believe 'PE' is quoted by you for Protection Earth? Protection
