Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems - Part 3: EMC requirements and specific test methods

IEC 61800-3:2017 is also available as IEC 61800-3:2017 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 61800-3:2017 specifies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for power drive systems (PDSs, defined in 3.1). These are adjustable speed AC or DC motor drives. Requirements are stated for PDSs with converter input and/or output voltages (line-to-line voltage), up to 35 kV AC RMS.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2004 and Amendment 1:2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) clarification of requirements for the test report, particularly when a number of alternative test methods exist;
b) introduction of a more detailed test setup for radiated emission measurements, along with the introduction of a 3 m measurement distance for small size equipment;
c) general updates in the informative annexes.

Entraînements électriques de puissance à vitesse variable - Partie 3: Exigences de CEM et méthodes d'essai spécifiques

IEC 61800-3:2017 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61800-3:2017 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 61800-3:2017 spécifie les exigences de compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) applicables aux entraînements de puissance (PDS, définis en 3.1). Il s'agit d'entraînements à vitesse variable pour moteurs électriques à courant alternatif ou continu. Le présent document spécifie les exigences relatives aux PDS avec convertisseurs ayant des tensions d'entrée et/ou sortie (tensions entre phases) d'une valeur efficace allant jusqu'à 35 kV en courant alternatif.
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la seconde édition parue en 2004 et l'Amendement 1:2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) éclaircissement des exigences concernant le rapport d'essai, notamment quand il existe plusieurs autres méthodes d'essai;
b) introduction d'une configuration d'essai plus détaillée pour les mesures des émissions rayonnées, ainsi que d'une distance de mesure de 3 m pour les petits matériels;
c) mises à jour générales des annexes informatives.
