Standard-Related Information

IEC 61000-4-16 Conducted Immunity Testing is a laboratory test that evaluates the electromagnetic immunity of electronic equipment to conducted electromagnetic disturbances. This test is specified in the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standard, which provides guidelines for testing and measuring the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment.

The IEC 61000 series is a collection of standards that focus on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), including conducted immunity. The IEC 61000-4-16 standard specifically addresses conducted immunity testing, providing detailed requirements for test procedures, measurement methods, and reporting formats.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding IEC 61000-4-16 Conducted Immunity Testing is governed by various international and national standards. These standards are developed and published by organizations such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC), and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).

The primary purpose of these standards is to ensure that electrical and electronic equipment meets certain levels of electromagnetic compatibility, including conducted immunity. Failure to comply with these standards can result in regulatory non-compliance, fines, and even product recalls.
