A common source used for calibration of the spark test chamber for intrinsic safety testing is a 95 mH air core inductor connected to a 24vDC source with current limiting that is adjusted based on the gas group you are using.   Kevin Robinson On Tue, Aug 16, 2016 at 7:57 PM -0400, "Doug

Is typically two different things - the ASTM E2019/EN13821 MIE stuff or the Mil stuff based on an LEL mix. Has been a very long while since these tests were witnessed, but do remember that the MIE tests can be rather sensitive to the shape of the VI curve per time, so L needs good control.

Dear Colleagues In 2014 CENELEC published an amendment to the EMC standard for alarm systems EN 50130-4:2011/A1:2014. In all the time since the commission failed to post it in the OJ for the old EMC directive to the considerable detriment of manufactures of alarm equipment. In May of this
