IEC 61000-5-6:2024
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 5-6: Installation and mitigation guidelines - Mitigation of external EM influences
Abstract
IEC 61000-5-6:2024 covers guidelines for the mitigation of external electromagnetic influences impinging upon a facility or installation, aimed at ensuring electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) among electrical and electronic apparatus or systems. These influences include lightning, RF transmitters, power-line and telecom transients, high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) and other high-power electromagnetic transients such as those from intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI). This document is intended for use by installers, manufacturers and users of sensitive electrical or electronic installations or systems. It applies primarily to new installations but, where economically feasible, it can be applied to extensions or modifications to existing facilities. While the technical principles are applicable to individual equipment or apparatus, such application is not included in the scope of this document.
This first edition cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC TR 61000-5-6 published in 2002. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) updating the whole document to include other HPEM environments including IEMI;
b) adding a new Annex A which provides details on the concept of EM resilience and includes information on HPEM detectors, recovery and restoration.
