BS EN 55016-2-4 is an international standard that discusses specifications for radio disturbance and immunity measuring apparatus and methods.
BS EN 55016-2-4 is a basic designated standard, which specifies the methods of measurement of immunity to EMC phenomena in the frequency range 9 kHz to 18 GHz.
BS EN 55016-2-4 is a product publication specifying EMC requirements for the product or product family, that considers specific aspects.
BS EN 55016-2-4 on testing immunity to EMC is relevant to:
Immunity measurements are based upon a judgment of the point when the effect of interference on the EUT (equipment under test) has reached a specified level. Immunity measurements are performed in general by the application of a wanted test signal and an unwanted signal to the EUT.
BS EN 55016-2-4 gives the fundamental basis of the measurement of immunity to EMC phenomena, together with a listing of conditions that are specified in the detailed recommendations produced by the CISPR product committees. It deals with the general principles of the conduction methods of measurement for immunity, and with radiation methods.
BS EN 55016-2-4 helps users in the assessment of EUT immunity, made by monitoring voltages, currents, specific signals, audio rectification levels, etc., that can be recorded using analogue or digital recording techniques. The immunity of television receivers to AM modulated RF interference is an example of one such assessment of performance degradation.
BS EN 55016-2-4 specifies the detailed immunity measurement method and the means of determining the degradation of performance acceptable, the product specifications which include other relevant details. It guides you to fulfill the needs of the test environment.
BS EN 55016-2-4 addresses calibration needs, which include both the periodic calibration of the test equipment used and particularly the means of calibrating said parameters like the amplitude and homogeneity of the unwanted signal as it is used in direct radiation or injection methods.
Overall, BS EN 55016-2-4 is useful as it provides guidance on the methods of measurement of disturbances and immunity which can be beneficial for your business.
