On November 26th, 2024, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) issued a new electromagnetic compatibility standard IEC 61000-4-41:2024 "Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)- Part 4-41: Testing and Measurement Technology-Broadband Radiation Immunity Test", which will be formally implemented in 2026.

The main contents of the standard are as follows:

1. Scope of application: This standard relates to broadband radiation interference generated by communication equipment or services, transmitters or industrial electromagnetic sources or any other equipment capable of generating such signals.

2. Test frequency: The standard specifies the test with a frequency higher than 80MHz, which is only limited by the capacity of commercial test instruments.

3. Test purpose: Through the test, evaluate the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment in broadband radiated electromagnetic field, and ensure that the equipment can work normally in complex electromagnetic environment.

Warm tips

With the rapid development of electronic technology, electrical and electronic equipment is more and more widely used in daily life and work. The publication and implementation of IEC 61000-4-41:2024 standard will help to improve the electromagnetic compatibility of electrical and electronic equipment and ensure the stability and reliability of equipment in complex electromagnetic environment. At the same time, it will also promote the rapid development and wide application of electronic technology. ZRLK suggests that relevant enterprises and institutions should actively prepare and understand the specific contents and requirements of the standard before the formal implementation of the standard, so as to better cope with the test.
