Common Features for all IEC 61000-4 Test Sequences
•t
Pre-set test sequences and test levels conform to IEC
61000-4 test standards, ready to test out of the box.
No need for any programming by the end-user saves
time.
•t
Immunity tests can be run continuously or in single
step mode to allow close observation of EUT performance. Enables detailed review of EUT behavior to
help implement needed design changes.
•t
AC measurements such as voltage and current are
recorded at each test step and included in test reports. Documents and validates correct EUT behavior
during and after test runs.

IEC Immunity Testing
The EMC Directive is one of the 'New Approach' Directives and applies
across all 27 member states of the European Union (EU). The Directive
applies to all electronic or electrical products liable to cause or be disturbed by electromagnetic interference (EMI). As a result a large number
of manufacturers in the electronics or electrical industries need to ensure
that their products are compliant with the requirements of the Directive
and be able to demonstrate that this is the case in order to affix the CE
Mark.
To verify compliance with these directives, the International Electrotechnical Commission (http://www.iec.ch) has issued a number of harmonized standards that describe test methods, test levels and pass or fail
criteria. A number of these test standards cover immunity to commonly
found AC line anomalies that are known to occur on the public Low Voltage (LV) network. These conducted immunity standards are numbered
IEC 61000-4-nn. These IEC 61000-4 standards are not product specific but
rather generic and may be applied to numerous product categories to
ensure compliance with CE mark requirements.
There are additional product specific IEC standards that cover individual
product types. To determine the IEC 61000-4 tests that apply to a particular product category, refer to the relevant product standard. For
example, the IEC EMC product standard that applies to programmable
