1 Scope
This Part of IEC 61000 focuses on the immunity requirements and test methods for electrical and electronic
equipment, under operational conditions, with regard to:
a) repetitive slow damped oscillatory waves occurring mainly in power, control and signal
cables installed in high voltage and medium voltage (HV/MV) substations;
b) repetitive fast damped oscillatory waves occurring mainly in power, control and signal
cables installed in gas insulated substations ( GIS ) and in some cases also air insulated substations ( AIS ) or in any installation due to high-altitude electromagnetic pulse ( HEMP ) phenomena.
The object of this document is to establish a common and reproducible reference for
evaluating the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to damped
oscillatory waves on supply, signal, control and earth ports . The test method documented in this Part of IEC 61000 describes a consistent method to assess the immunity of an equipment or system against
a defined phenomenon.
