(Main)Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems -- Part 3: EMC requirements and specific test methods
Adjustable speed electrical power drive systems -- Part 3: EMC requirements and specific test methods
Specifies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for power drive systems (PDSs). A PDS is defined in 3.1. These are adjustable speed a.c. or d.c. motor drives. Requirements are stated for PDSs with converter input and/or output voltages (line-to-line voltage), up to 35 kV a.c. r.m.s. The three main changes are: a) the classes of distribution of the PDS have been replaced by categories of PDS (C1 to C4) with definitions related to the product itself and its intended use, b) better coverage of emission limits, c) an EMC plan is generalized for categeory C4.
Drehzahlveränderbare elektrische Antriebe -- Teil 3: EMV-Anforderungen einschließlich spezieller Prüfverfahren
Entraînements électriques de puissance à vitesse variable -- Partie 3: Exigences de CEM et méthodes d'essais spécifiques
spécifie les prescriptions de compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) applicables aux entraînements de puissance (PDS). Le PDS est défini en 3.1. Il s'agit d'entraînements à vitesse variable pour moteurs électriques à courant alternatif ou continu. Cette norme spécifie les exigences afférentes aux PDS avec convertisseurs ayant des tensions d'entrée et/ou sortie (tensions entre phases), de valeur efficace allant jusqu'à 35 kV en alternatif.
Električni pogonski sistemi z nastavljivo hitrostjo - 3. del: Zahteve za elektromagnetno združljivost in posebne preskusne metode (IEC 61800-3:2004)
Standard določa zahteve za elektromagnetno združljivost za pogonske sisteme. Pogonski sistem je opredeljen v točki 3.1. Pogonski sistemi so motorni pogoni z enosmerno ali izmenično napetostjo z nastavljivo hitrostjo. Zahteve so določene za pogonske sisteme s pretvornimi vhodnimi in/ali izhodnimi napetostmi (medlinijska napetost), do 35 kV izmenične napetosti efektivne vrednosti. Tri glavne spremembe so: a) distribucijske razrede pogonskih sistemov so nadomestile kategorije pogonskih sistemov (C1 do C4), pri čemer so opredelitve povezane s samim proizvodom in njegovo nameravano uporabo, b) boljša pokritost mejnih vrednosti emisij, c) za kategorijo C4 je posplošen načrt v zvezi z elektromagnetno združljivostjo.

Foreword
The text of document 22G/127/FDIS, future edition 2 of IEC 61800-3, prepared by SC 22G, Adjustable
speed electric drive systems incorporating semiconductor power converters, of IEC TC 22, Power
electronic systems and equipment, was submitted to the IEC-CENELEC parallel vote and was
approved by CENELEC as EN 61800-3 on 2004-10-01.
This European Standard supersedes EN 61800-3:1996 + A11:2000 + corrigendum May 2001.
This European Standard introduces three main changes:
a) the classes of distribution (unrestricted and restricted) of the PDS have been replaced by
categories of PDS (C1 to C4) with definitions related to the product itself and its intended use;
b) better coverage of emission limits;
c) an EMC plan is generalized for category C4.
The following dates were fixed:
– latest date by which the EN has to be implemented
at national level by publication of an identical
national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2005-07-01
– latest date by which the national standards conflicting
with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2007-10-01
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential requirements of Directive
89/336/EEC. See Annex ZZ.
Annexes ZA and ZZ have been added by CENELEC.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
