Introduction
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) refers to the ability of electrical and electronic equipment or systems to function properly in their electromagnetic environment without posing a threat to anything in that environment.
The ability to withstand electromagnetic interference. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) issues are a significant factor affecting the environment and product quality, and standardization efforts have been undertaken.
This has attracted widespread attention both domestically and internationally. In this regard, the IEC 61000 series of standards developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) are crucial for the manufacturing and information industries.
General standards in fields such as industry, electrical engineering and energy, transportation, social services and health, and consumer product quality and safety are divided into comprehensive standards.
The standards are categorized into six main types. description, environment, limits, testing and measurement techniques, installation and mitigation guidelines, and general standards. my country has already begun developing standards for this series.
Domestic transformation work has been carried out, and a corresponding national standard system has been established.
Within this standard system, GB/T (Z)30556 "Electromagnetic Compatibility Installation and Mitigation Guidelines" pertains to installation and mitigation procedures in the field of electromagnetic compatibility.
The basic standards for measures aim to describe electromagnetic environment protection methods, devices, and mitigation methods, and are planned to consist of 10 parts.
---Part 1: General Requirements. The purpose is to provide general requirements and guidelines for mitigation methods to ensure effectiveness in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
Electromagnetic compatibility of electrical and electronic equipment or systems used in the environment.
---Part 2: Grounding and Wiring. The purpose is to provide guidelines for grounding and wiring in electrical and electronic equipment and installations to ensure electrical safety. Electromagnetic compatibility of gases and electronic equipment or systems.
---Part 3: Protection Concepts Against High-Altitude Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP). The purpose is to provide information on HEMP protection for civilian facilities.
The analysis includes aspects such as protective design, assessment of existing protection against the strength of the HEMP, and differences between HEMP protection and lightning protection requirements. Basic information about the surface.
---Part 4: HEMP Immunity Technical Specifications for HEMP Disturbance Protection Devices. The purpose is to protect civilian systems by specifying regulations.
To unify the protective devices used to protect against HEMP, and to standardize the technical specifications that have been or will be released by all parties.
---Part 5: HEMP Conducted Interference Protection Device Specification. The purpose is to describe HEMP conducted interference protection devices.
The corresponding parameter specifications are guaranteed by the manufacturers of protection devices, electronic equipment manufacturers, official agencies, and other end users. Consistency between existing or drafted standards issued by the user.
---Part 6: Mitigation of External Electromagnetic Influences. The aim is to describe mitigation measures for external electromagnetic influences such as lightning, radio frequency transmitters, etc.
Guidelines for electromagnetic influences such as power transmission lines and telecommunications transients to ensure electromagnetic compatibility between electrical and electronic instruments or systems.
---Part 7: Electromagnetic Interference Protection Rating (EM Code) of Enclosure. The purpose is to provide a repeatable test method for evaluating the mechanical... The shielding performance of empty structural enclosures such as boxes and racks is specified and coded, allowing manufacturers to determine the electromagnetic field attenuation capability based on known specifications. Choose the casing.
---Part 8: HEMP Protection Methods for Distributed Infrastructure. The purpose is to provide methods for protecting distributed infrastructure (electricity, power, etc.).
Provides guidance on protecting communications, transportation, pipeline networks, etc. from HEMP threats.
---Part 9: System-level sensitivity assessment of HEMP and HPEM. The aim is to provide a system-level sensitivity assessment of HEMP and HPEM.
This paper proposes effective methods for assessing the system-level sensitivity of electronic systems to environmental conditions, and discusses the advantages, disadvantages, and application examples of these methods.
---Part 10: Protection Guidelines for HEMP and IEMI Facilities. The purpose is to provide guidance on protecting commercial facilities from HEMP and IEMI. MI provides guidance.
The formulation of GB /Z 30556.9 this time focuses on the impact of high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) and high-power electromagnetic (HPEM) environments on electricity.
The system-level sensitivity assessment method for the impact of subsystems is defined, the system-level sensitivity assessment process is clarified, and the specific methods for each assessment stage are specified.
These requirements enhance the systematic and holistic nature of sensitivity assessment for electronic systems, providing a framework for technical committees, product committees, and conformity assessment bodies.
Providing guidance for sensitivity assessments enables domestic technical committees related to electromagnetic compatibility to address high-altitude electromagnetic pulses (HEMPs) and high-power electromagnetic interference (HMPs).
The handling of system-level sensitivity in electromagnetic (HPEM) environments is consistent. Electromagnetic Compatibility Installation and Mitigation Guidelines Part 9. System-level sensitivity assessment of HEMP and HPEM
