FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation is
entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may
participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization
for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two
organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an
international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation
from all interested National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61000-2-10 has been prepared by subcommittee 77C: Immunity to
high altitude nuclear electromagnetic pulse (HEMP), of IEC technical committee 77:
Electromagnetic compatibility.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
77C/61/FDIS 77C/65/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.

Part 2-10: Environment – Description of HEMP environment –
Conducted disturbance
1 Scope
This International Standard defines the high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) conducted
environment that is one of the consequences of a high-altitude nuclear explosion.
Those dealing with this subject consider two cases:
– high-altitude nuclear explosions;
– low-altitude nuclear explosions.
For civil systems the most important case is the high-altitude nuclear explosion. In this case,
the other effects of the nuclear explosion: blast, ground shock, thermal and nuclear ionizing
radiation are not present at the ground level.
However, the electromagnetic pulse associated with the explosion may cause disruption of, and
damage to, communication, electronic and electric power systems thereby upsetting the
stability of modern society.
The object of this standard is to establish a common reference for the conducted HEMP
environment in order to select realistic stresses to apply to victim equipment for evaluating
their performance.
2 Normative references

3 General
A high-altitude (above 30 km) nuclear burst produces three types of electromagnetic pulses
which are observed on the earth's surface:
– early-time HEMP (fast);
– intermediate-time HEMP (medium);
– late-time HEMP (slow).
Historically most interest has been focused on the early-time HEMP which was previously
referred to as simply HEMP. Here we will use the term high-altitude EMP or HEMP to include
1)
all three types. The term NEMP covers many categories of nuclear EMPs including those
2) 3)
produced by surface bursts (SREMP) or created on space systems (SGEMP) .
Because the HEMP is produced by a high-altitude detonation, we do not observe other nuclear
weapon environments such as gamma rays, heat and shock waves at the earth's surface.
HEMP was reported from high-altitude nuclear tests in the South Pacific by the US and over
the USSR during the early 1960s, producing effects on electronic equipment far from the burst
location.
This standard presents the conducted HEMP environment induced on metallic lines, such as
cables or power lines, external and internal to installations, and external antennas.

NEMP: Nuclear electromagnetic pulse.

SREMP: Source region EMP.

horizontal polarization
an electromagnetic wave is horizontally polarized if the magnetic field vector is in the incidence
plane and the electric field vector is perpendicular to the incidence plane and thus parallel to
the ground plane (see figure 1). (This type of polarization is also called perpendicular or
transverse electric (TE).)

a topological volume, unless an adequate PoE protective device is provided. A PoE is not
limited to a geometrical point. PoEs are classified as aperture PoEs or conductive PoEs
according to the type of penetration. They are also classified as architectural, mechanical,
structural or electrical PoEs, according to the functions they serve
