Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Environment - Compatibility levels for low-frequency conducted disturbances and signalling in public low-voltage power supply systems

This standard is concerned with conducted disturbances in the frequency range from 0 kHz to 9 kHz, with an extension up to 148,5 kHz specifically for mains signalling systems. It gives compatibility levels for public low voltage a.c. distribution systems having a nominal voltage up to 420 V, single-phase or 690 V, three-phase and a nominal frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz.

Overview

EN 61000-2-2:2002/A2:2019 (IEC 61000-2-2:2002/A2:2018) is a CENELEC/IEC amendment that defines compatibility levels for low‑frequency conducted disturbances and signalling in public low‑voltage power supply systems. It updates the original Part 2‑2 environment publication to clarify voltage‑fluctuation (flicker) data, add numeric values for curve points, and introduce compatibility levels in the 30 kHz–150 kHz band for differential‑mode voltage distortion. Measurement methods remain outside the scope.

Key topics and technical requirements

• Compatibility levels: Reference levels for coordination when setting emission limits and immunity requirements for equipment supplied from public low‑voltage networks.
• 30 kHz–150 kHz band: New Table 4 gives compatibility levels for differential‑mode voltage distortion (values expressed in dB(µV)); the level decreases linearly with log(frequency) across subranges (30–50 kHz and 50–150 kHz).
• Voltage fluctuations and flicker: Amendment adds numeric values corresponding to Figure 1 (now provided in Annex E / Table E.1) to support precise assessments for various lamp types and supply frequencies.
• Scope clarification: A new note states that measurement methods for disturbance levels are not covered by this document.
• Informative basis: Annex D explains rationale and evidence for the 30 kHz–150 kHz compatibility curve, discussing sources of interference (e.g., switching converters, PV inverters) and the impact on affected equipment.
• Practical considerations: The amendment recognizes that factors beyond amplitude - such as mains impedance, spectral shape and number of spectral lines, and time behaviour - influence EMC in this frequency range.

Practical applications and typical users

This standard is intended as a reference for:

• EMC engineers and test laboratories setting emission and immunity criteria.
• Product manufacturers of equipment connected to low‑voltage public mains (e.g., meters, clocks, multicarrier signalling systems, lighting, filter capacitors).
• Grid and system designers assessing impact of distributed generation and switching power supplies on power quality.
• Regulators and standards bodies when defining national or regional emission limits and coordination practices.

Using EN 61000-2-2:2019 helps stakeholders reduce harmful interference, improve long‑term EMC performance, and guide cost‑effective emission‑limit design decisions.

• IEC 61000‑2‑2 (base publication)
• CISPR 15 (referenced for limits on lighting equipment)
• IEC 61000‑4‑15 (calibration and flicker testing - numerical data cross‑referenced in Annex E)
