Introduction
Immunity measurements of complete vehicles are generally able to be carried out only by the vehicle
manufacturer, owing to, for example, high costs of an absorber-lined shielded enclosure (ALSE), the
desire to preserve the secrecy of prototypes or a large number of different vehicles models.
For research, development and quality control, a laboratory measuring method can be used by both
vehicle manufacturers and equipment suppliers to test electronic components.

energy —
Part 2:
Absorber-lined shielded enclosure
1 Scope
This document specifies an absorber-lined shielded enclosure method for testing the immunity (off-
vehicle radiation source) of electronic components for passenger cars and commercial vehicles
regardless of the propulsion system (e.g. spark-ignition engine, diesel engine, electric motor). The
device under test (DUT), together with the wiring harness (prototype or standard test harness), is
subjected to an electromagnetic disturbance generated inside an absorber-lined shielded enclosure,
with peripheral devices either inside or outside the enclosure. It is applicable only to disturbances from
continuous narrowband electromagnetic fields. See ISO 11452-1 for general test conditions.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 11452-1:2015, Road vehicles — Component test methods for electrical disturbances from narrowband
radiated electromagnetic energy — Part 1: General principles and terminology
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 11452-1 apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— IEC Electropedia: available at http: //www .electropedia .org/

4 Test conditions
The applicable frequency range of the absorber-lined shielded enclosure test method is 80 MHz to 18 GHz.
The user shall specify the test severity level(s) over the frequency range. Suggested test levels are
included in Annex B.
Standard test conditions shall be according to ISO 11452-1 for the following:
— test temperature;
— supply voltage;
— modulation;
— dwell time;
© ISO 2019 – All rights reserved 1
---------------------- Page: 6 ----------------------
ISO 11452-2:2019(E)
— frequency step sizes;
— definition of test severity levels; and
— test signal quality.
5 Test location
The tests shall be performed in an ALSE.
The purpose of such an enclosure is to create an isolated electromagnetic compatibility test facility
which simulates open field testing. Basically, an ALSE consists of a shielded room with absorbing
material on its internal reflective surfaces except the floor. However, flat ferrite tiles with a maximum
thickness of 25 mm may be optionally applied on the floor.
The same ALSE configuration shall be used for calibration and the DUT test.
The design objective is to attenuate the reflected energy in the test area by at least 10 dB compared to
the direct energy.
NOTE In order to achieve this objective, the performance of the absorbing material for the walls and ceiling
can be greater than or equal to 6 dB in the frequency range of use. A test method for evaluating absorbing
[1]
material is described in IEEE STD 1128-1998 .
6 Test apparatus and instrumentation
6.1 General
Radiated electromagnetic fields are generated using antennas with a radio frequency (RF) energy
source capable of producing the desired field strengths. A set of antennas and multiple RF amplifiers
could be required to cover the range of test frequencies.
6.2 Measuring equipment
6.2.1 Field-generating device, any available antenna (including high-power baluns, if appropriate)
capable of radiating the specified field strength at the DUT with the available power may be used. The
construction and orientation of any field-generating device shall be such that the generated field can be
polarized in the mode specified in the test plan.
6.2.2 Field probes, shall be electrically small in relation to the wavelength, isotropic and with three
orthogonal axes. The communication lines from the probe shall be fibre optic links.
6.2.3 Artificial networks (AN), high voltage artificial networks (HV-AN), artificial mains
networks (AMN), and asymmetric artificial networks (AAN), see 7.2 and ISO 11452-1: 2015, Annex B.
6.2.4 RF generator, with internal (or external) modulation capabilities.
6.2.5 High-power amplifier.
6.2.6 Power meter and/or power sensors (or equivalent measuring instrument) and dual directional
coupler, for measuring forward power and reflected power.

ISO 11452-2:2019(E)
6.3 Stimulation and monitoring of DUT
The device under test (DUT) shall be operated as required in the test plan by actuators that have a
minimum effect on the electromagnetic characteristics, e.g. plastic blocks on the push-buttons,
pneumatic actuators with plastic tubes.
Connections to equipment monitoring electromagnetic interference reactions of the DUT may be
accomplished by using fibre-optics, or high-resistance leads. Other types of lead may be used but
require extreme care to minimize interactions. The orientation, length and location of such leads shall
be carefully documented to ensure repeatability of test results.
Any electrical connection of monitoring equipment to the DUT may cause malfunctions of the DUT.
Extreme care shall be taken to avoid such an effect.
7 Test set-up for DUT powered by an unshielded power system
7.1 Ground plane
The ground plane shall be made of 0,5 mm thick (minimum) copper, brass or galvanized steel.
The minimum width of the ground plane shall be 1 000 mm, or the width of the entire underneath
of the test setup (DUT and associated equipment (e.g. harness including supply lines, load simulator
located on the test bench and AN(s)), excluding battery and/or power supply) plus 200 mm, whichever
is the larger.
The minimum length of the ground plane shall be 2 000 mm, or the length of the entire underneath
of the test setup (DUT and associated equipment (e.g. harness including supply lines, load simulator
located on the test bench and AN(s)), excluding battery and/or power supply) plus 200 mm, whichever
is the larger.
The height of the ground plane (test bench) shall be (900 ± 100) mm above the floor.
The ground plane shall be bonded to the shielded enclosure such that the DC resistance shall not exceed
2,5 mΩ. The distance from the edge of the ground strap to the edge of the next strap shall not be greater
than 300 mm. The maximum length to width ratio for the ground straps shall be 7:1.
7.2 Power supply and AN
Each DUT power supply lead shall be connected to the power supply through an AN.
Power supply is assumed to be negative ground. If the DUT utilizes a positive ground, then the test
set-ups shown in the figures shall be adapted accordingly. Power shall be applied to the DUT via a
5 µH/50 Ω AN (see ISO 11452-1:2015, Annex B for the schematic). The number of ANs required depends
on the intended DUT installation in the vehicle.
— For a remotely grounded DUT (vehicle power return line longer than 200 mm), two ANs are required:
one for the positive supply line and another for the power return line (see Annex A).
— For a locally grounded DUT (vehicle power return line 200 mm or shorter), only one AN is required,
for the positive supply (see Annex A).
The AN(s) shall be mounted directly on the ground plane. The case or cases of the AN(s) shall be bonded
to the ground plane.
The power supply return shall be connected to the ground plane between the power supply and the AN(s).
The measuring port of each AN shall be terminated with a 50 Ω load.

8 Test setup for DUT powered by a shielded power system
8.1 Ground plane
The ground plane conditions defined in 7.1 apply.
8.2 Power supply and AN
Each DUT power supply lead shall be connected to the power supply through an HV-AN (for DUT with
DC HV supply) and/or AMN (for DUT with AC supply).
— DC HV supply shall be applied to the DUT via a 5 µH/50 Ω HV AN (see ISO 11452-1:2015, Annex B for
the schematic).
— AC supply shall be applied to the DUT via a 50 µH/50 Ω AMN (see ISO 11452-1:2015, Annex B for the
schematic).
The HV-AN(s) shall be mounted directly on the ground plane. The case or cases of the HV-AN(s) shall be
bonded to the ground plane.
The measuring port of each HV-AN(s) shall be terminated with a 50 Ω load.
The vehicle HV battery should be used; otherwise the external HV power supply shall be connected via
feed-through-filtering.
Shielded supply lines for the positive HV DC terminal line (HV+), the negative HV DC terminal line
(HV-) and three phase HV AC lines may be separate coaxial cables or in a common shield depending on
the connector system used.
The shielded harnesses used for this test shall be representative of the vehicle application in terms of
cable construction and connector termination as defined in the test plan.
Care should be taken when using a power line filter (Key 16) on the HV supply line. This filter will
increase the common mode capacitance between HV+ and ground reference or HV- and ground
reference and could lead to the generation of extra resonances.
For the charger, the AMN(s) shall be mounted on the test facility floor ground plane. The case or cases
of the AMN(s) shall be bonded to the test facility floor ground plane. The charger PE (protective earth)
line shall be bounded to the test set-up ground plane and to the AMN(s) PE connection.
The measuring port of each HV-AN(s) / AMN(s) shall be terminated with a 50 Ω load.
8.3 Location of DUT
Unless otherwise specified, the DUT shall be placed directly on the ground plane with the DUT case
bonded to the ground plane either directly or via defined impedance.
The front of the DUT shall be located at a distance of (200 ± 10) mm from the edge of the ground plane.
In case of a charger, the battery charger case shall be bonded to the ground plane.

harnesses shall be as follows:
+300
0
— (1700 ) mm for the LV lines;
+300
0
— (1700 )mm for the HV lines and the length of the HV test harness parallel to the front of the
ground plane shall be (1 500 ± 75) mm; and
— less than 1 000 mm for the three phase lines between DUT and electric motor(s).
If the HV test harness is over 2 000 mm, the HV test harness length should be defined in the test plan
and described in the test report.
All of the harnesses shall be placed on a non-conductive, low relative permittivity material (ε ≤ 1,4) at
r
(50 ± 5) mm above the ground plane.
The detailed layout of the harness on DUT side between the ground plane front edge and the DUT
connector(s) shall be described in the test plan.
The shielded harnesses used for this test shall be representative of the vehicle application in terms of
cable construction and connector termination as defined in the test plan.
The long segment of LV lines test harness shall be located parallel to the edge of the reference ground
plane facin
