Overview
EN 61000-4-17:1999/A2:2009 (adoption of IEC 61000-4-17 with Amendment 2) is a European/IEC test standard in the EMC family that specifies testing and measurement techniques for assessing immunity to ripple on d.c. input power ports. It defines how to generate, inject and measure residual low-frequency ripple and low-frequency components on direct‑current power inputs so that equipment behavior under realistic power conditions can be evaluated for electromagnetic compatibility.
This amendment (A2, 2009) updates the original 1999 edition and was endorsed by CENELEC as EN 61000-4-17:1999/A2:2009. Annex ZA and certain normative-reference clarifications were introduced as part of the amendment.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope of testing: Procedures for performing a ripple-on-d.c. input power port immunity test to determine whether equipment continues to operate within acceptable limits when subjected to residual ripple or low-frequency ac components on its DC supply.
- Test and measurement techniques: Methods for generating ripple waveforms, injecting ripple onto DC power ports, and measuring the waveform and equipment response using appropriate instrumentation.
- Verification of generator characteristics: Requirements to verify the test generator’s performance and characteristics (see section 6.2 - amendment modifies text regarding references).
- Normative references: The standard relies on general EMC vocabulary and environmental testing standards, notably IEC 60050‑161 (EMC vocabulary) and IEC 60068‑1 (environmental testing). Amendment A2 removed some dated references and the IEC 61000‑4‑11 reference from the normative list.
- Conformance and documentation: Test setup, measurement points and reporting conventions necessary for reproducible and auditable immunity assessment.
Note: This summary avoids specification of numerical test levels or waveform parameters - consult the full standard for exact test amplitudes, frequency content and pass/fail criteria.
Applications and who uses it
- Product compliance testing: EMC laboratories use this standard to validate that products with DC power inputs (industrial controllers, telecom equipment, battery‑operated devices, power supplies, etc.) tolerate ripple without malfunction.
- Design verification: Design and test engineers apply the methods during development to identify susceptibility to power-line ripple and to qualify mitigation (filtering, regulation).
- Regulatory and procurement: Compliance teams and procurement specialists reference this standard when specifying EMC immunity requirements for equipment to ensure reliability in environments with imperfect DC supplies.
- Manufacturers and integrators: Ensure consistent performance and reduce field failures related to DC supply disturbances.
