Introduction
Mains communication equipment connected to the low voltage network will load the mains with
their inherent impedance.
In general, many types of equipment connected to the same low voltage communication
network will present a summative load impedance for transmitters injecting signals onto the
mains network.
As a result, the mains impedance, which is time variable, will in general decrease and the
attenuation increase, deteriorating the communication over the mains network.
The aim of this standard is to limit the deterioration in communication due to the contribution of
the loads formed by other communication equipment connected to the same low voltage
network and operating in the same frequency band or adjacent frequency bands.
This standard will therefore specify the suitable minimum impedance (modulus) of the
communication equipment impedance in this operating frequency range for both transmitting
and receiving mode in order to minimise mutual interference.
An informative annex is included with this part of the standard, identifying characteristics that
can influence performance of equipment connected to the same mains network.

1 Scope
This standard applies to electrical equipment, excluding decoupling filters, using signals in the
frequency range 3 kHz to 148,5 kHz for data transmission on low voltage electrical networks,
either on the public supply network or within installations in consumers' premises.
It specifies requirements for mains communication equipment with respect to the load
impedance of the mains.
It does not specify the impedance of external components that are not necessary for the normal
functioning of the communication equipment.

3 Definitions
For the purpose of this standard the following definitions apply. Further, the definitions given in
the International Electrical Vocabulary IEC 60050-161 apply.
3.1
Type 1 equipment
the equipment using signals in the frequency range 3 kHz to 95 kHz (see 4.1 of EN 50065-1)
3.2
Type 2 equipment
the equipment using signals in the frequency range 95 kHz to 148,5 kHz (see 4.2 of
EN 50065-1)
3.3
bandwidth, BW
see 6.2.1 of EN 50065-1
4 Requirements
The minimum values of the impedance modulus for Type 1 equipment and Type 2 equipment,
either in receiving operating mode (RX) and transmitting operating mode (TX), are defined in the
following tables.
The abbreviations “Out BW” and “In BW” (for BW, see 3.3) in Table 2 mean “outside the
bandwidth” and “inside the bandwidth” respectively.
For example, a system operating in the frequency range from 40 kHz to 60 kHz has an inside
bandwidth of 20 kHz and the outside bandwidth range from 3 kHz to 40 kHz and from 60 kHz to
95 kHz.
These requirements apply for the design of equipment satisfying the impedance requirements
for both Type 1 and Type 2. If the impedance requirements (see Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4) are not
satisfied, an appropriate decoupling filter shall be used.

Common-mode injection devices may disturb the normal operation of residual current protection devices and
cause serious safety hazards to the user. Therefore, common-mode injection shall not be used unless
otherwise explicitly allowed in local regulations (see EN 50065-1).
These impedance values have to be measured in accordance with clause 5.
5 Test method
5.1 General
Two test methods are proposed the "impedance analyser method" and the "voltage ratio
method".
The "impedance analyser method" allows the measurement of real and imaginary parts of the
impedance of the device under test (DUT). This method is the reference method.
The "voltage ratio method" only indicates if the modulus of the impedance of the DUT is above
or below the limit.
5.2 Test conditions
The mains communication equipment (DUT) shall be connected with all external components
that are necessary for operation.
For mains communication equipmen
