Safety
The high voltage interference pulse can contain a very large quantity of energy and every precaution shall be
taken to avoid contact with EUT during a test. It is highly recommended that at least one other person is present
(or very close by) during the test.
Test Configuration
EUT Setup
The EUT shall be setup in a typical system configuration on an isolated wooden bench with NO GROUNDPLANE.
The power to the EUT and auxiliary equipment shall be from 12V or 24V sealed lead-acid batteries via a suitable
fuse. The length of the EUT power cable shall be no more than 2m. Any screens within the system shall be
terminated at the battery –ve connection.
EUT Operating Configuration
All operating configurations should be tested with appropriate performance criteria defined for each test.
