Overview
prEN IEC 55014-1:2025 (frag2) - also referenced as CISPR 14-1/FRAG2 - updates the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission requirements for household appliances, electric tools and similar apparatus. This fragment specifically adds normative requirements for microwave ovens intended for residential use and locations directly connected to low-voltage domestic supply networks. The document defines conducted and radiated emission limits, measurement procedures and site-validation requirements for compliance testing.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Scope extension: Microwave ovens for residential environments are now included in CISPR 14-1 (with a transitional option to use CISPR 11). Industrial-class microwave applications (CISPR 11 class A) remain excluded.
- Conducted emissions: Limits are defined for mains and wired network ports in the 150 kHz to 30 MHz band (no limits specified for 9 kHz–150 kHz). Measurements use the CISPR artificial mains network (50 Ω/50 µH) or the CISPR voltage probe; separate limits apply for voltage and current on wired ports.
- Radiated emissions: Limits are given:
- Magnetic field limits up to 30 MHz,
- Electric field limits above 30 MHz,
- Specific tables for 150 kHz–1 GHz and 1 GHz–18 GHz (including peak, averaged, Log‑AV weighted and APD-based limits).
- Detectors and measurement methods: Peak, Quasi‑Peak (QP), Average (AV), Log‑AV weighting and Amplitude Probability Distribution (APD) methods are referenced. APD is specified for certain 1–18 GHz checks.
- Test distances and sites: Measurements may be performed at 3 m or 10 m on OATS or SAC; FAR measurements are allowed if the EUT fits the validated volume. Test sites must be validated per CISPR 16-1-4 and measurement procedures align with CISPR 16-2-3/CISPR 32 where applicable.
- EUT load and setup for microwave ovens: Normal accessories in place and a 1 L tap‑water load (borosilicate glass cylinder, external diameter 190 mm ±5 mm, height 90 mm ±5 mm - reference: IEC 60705).
- Special workflow: Flowcharts and decision trees guide when peak, weighted and APD measurements are required (including follow-up measurements where limits are exceeded).
Applications and who should use this standard
- Appliance and microwave oven manufacturers - design and EMC compliance for products sold into residential markets.
- EMC test laboratories - to perform conducted and radiated emission testing in accordance with updated procedures and detectors.
- Product certification bodies, compliance engineers and regulators - to verify conformity and to interpret transitional arrangements with CISPR 11.
- R&D and design teams - to identify emission control needs early in product development.
