EVS-EN IEC 61000-3-2:2019+A1:2021

IEC 61000-3-2 deals with limiting harmonic currents injected into the public supply system. It specifies limits of harmonic components of the input current which can be produced by equipment tested under specified conditions. IEC 61000-3-2 applies to electrical and electronic equipment with a rated input current of up to 16 A per phase and is intended to be connected to public low-voltage distribution systems.

Arc welding equipment, which is not professional equipment, with a rated input current up to and including 16 A per phase, is included in IEC 61000-3-2. Arc welding equipment intended for professional use is excluded from this standard. The limits have not yet been considered for systems with nominal voltages less than but not equal to 220 V (line-to-neutral). This consolidated version consists of the main text and the amendment, which can also be found separately from the standards history.

The international standard has been approved in Europe EN IEC 61000-3-2:2019 without any changes and it supersedes EN 61000-3-2:2014.
