EVS-EN IEC 61000-4-3:2020

IEC 61000-4-3 applies to the immunity requirements of electrical and electronic equipment to radiated electromagnetic energy. It establishes test levels and the required test procedures. It establishes a common reference for evaluating the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to radiated, radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. The test method describes a consistent method to assess the immunity of equipment or systems against RF electromagnetic fields from RF sources not near the EUT.

Test methods are defined in IEC 61000-4-3 for evaluating the effect that electromagnetic radiation has on the equipment concerned. The simulation and measurement of electromagnetic radiation are not adequately exact for the quantitative determination of impact. The test methods defined in this basic document aim to establish an adequate reproducibility of testing configuration and repeatability of test results at various test facilities.

IEC 61000-4-3 is an independent test method. It is not possible to use other test methods as substitutes for claiming compliance with this document.

The text of IEC 61000-4-3:2020 has been approved in Europe as EN IEC 61000-4-3:2020 without any changes.
