Overview
EN 61000-4-17:1999 (adopted by CLC / SIST EN 61000-4-17:2001) is a European test standard within the EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) series that specifies methods to assess immunity to ripple on the d.c. input power port of electrical and electronic equipment. The standard applies to low-voltage d.c. power ports of equipment supplied by external rectifier systems or by batteries that are being charged. It is identical to IEC 61000-4-17:1999 and is classified under ICS 33.100.20 (Immunity).
Key topics and requirements
The standard defines the essential elements of a repeatable immunity test for ripple on d.c. inputs without prescribing product-specific pass/fail criteria:
- Test voltage waveform - definition of the ripple waveform shapes to be applied to the d.c. input.
- Range of test levels - specified amplitude ranges for immunity testing (levels appropriate for low-voltage d.c. ports).
- Test generator - requirements for equipment used to generate the ripple disturbance.
- Test set-up - recommended connection arrangements, grounding practice and interface with the equipment under test.
- Test procedure - step-by-step procedural guidance for applying disturbances and observing equipment behavior.
The standard focuses on reproducible measurement and test methodology so manufacturers and test houses can evaluate how ripple affects equipment performance and immunity.
Applications and who uses this standard
EN 61000-4-17 is practical for anyone involved in the design, verification and certification of equipment with d.c. input ports, including:
- EMC engineers and compliance specialists validating immunity to power ripple.
- Product designers of power supplies, battery chargers, and electronics that rely on external rectifiers or charging sources.
- Test laboratories performing standardized immunity testing for product certification.
- Manufacturers seeking robust product behavior in environments with fluctuating d.c. sources (industrial systems, telecom power plants, battery-backed systems).
Using EN 61000-4-17 helps identify susceptibility to d.c. ripple, guide mitigation (filtering, regulation), and provide documented evidence for EMC compliance processes.
