Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 4-11: Testing and measurement techniques - Voltage dips, short interruptions and voltage variations immunity tests for equipment with input current up to 16 A per phase
This part of IEC 61000 defines the immunity test methods and range of preferred test levels
for electrical and electronic equipment connected to low-voltage power supply networks for
voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations.
This document applies to electrical and electronic equipment having a rated input current not
exceeding 16 A per phase, for connection to 50 Hz or 60 Hz AC networks.
It does not apply to electrical and electronic equipment for connection to 400 Hz AC networks.
Tests for these networks will be covered by future IEC documents.
The object of this document is to establish a common reference for evaluating the immunity of
electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to voltage dips, short interruptions and
voltage variations.
NOTE 1 Voltage fluctuation immunity tests are covered by IEC 61000-4-14.
The test method documented in this document describes a consistent method to assess the
immunity of equipment or a system against a defined phenomenon.
NOTE 2 As described in IEC Guide 107, this is a basic EMC publication for use by product committees of the
IEC. As also stated in Guide 107, the IEC product committees are responsible for determining whether this
immunity test standard should be applied or not, and, if applied, they are responsible for defining the appropriate
test levels. Technical committee 77 and its sub-committees are prepared to co-operate with product committees in
the evaluation of the value of particular immunity tests for their products.

Compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) - Partie 4-11: Techniques d'essai et de mesure - Essais d'immunité aux creux de tension, coupures brèves et variations de tension pour les appareils à courant d’entrée inférieur ou égal à 16 A par phase
IEC 61000-4-11:2020 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61000-4-11:2020 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 61000-4-11:2020 définit les méthodes d'essai d'immunité ainsi que la plage des niveaux d'essais préférentiels pour les matériels électriques et électroniques connectés à des réseaux d'alimentation à basse tension pour les creux de tension, les coupures brèves et les variations de tension. Le présent document s’applique aux matériels électriques et électroniques dont le courant assigné d’entrée ne dépasse pas 16 A par phase et destinés à être reliés à des réseaux électriques à courant alternatif de 50 Hz ou 60 Hz. Il ne s'applique pas aux matériels électriques et électroniques destinés à être reliés à des réseaux électriques à courant alternatif de 400 Hz. Les essais pour ces réseaux seront traités dans des documents IEC à venir. Le but du présent document est d'établir une référence commune pour l'évaluation de l'immunité des matériels électriques et électroniques soumis à des creux de tension, à des coupures brèves et à des variations de tension.
NOTE 1 Les essais d’immunité aux fluctuations de tension sont traités dans l’IEC 61000-4-14. La méthode d’essai décrite dans le présent document détaille une méthode sans faille pour évaluer l’immunité d’un matériel ou d’un système à un phénomène prédéfini.
NOTE 2 Comme cela est décrit dans le Guide 107 de l’IEC, ce document est une publication fondamentale en CEM destinée à l’usage des comités de produits de l’IEC. Comme cela est également mentionné dans le Guide 107, les comités de produits de l’IEC sont chargés de décider s’il convient d’utiliser ou non cette norme d’essai d’immunité et, si elle est utilisée, les comités sont responsables de la définition des niveaux d’essai appropriés. Le comité d’études 77 et ses sous-comités sont prêts à coopérer avec les comités de produits pour l’évaluation de la pertinence des essais particuliers d’immunité pour leurs produits. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2004 et l'Amendement 1:2017. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- le temps de montée et le temps de descente sont désormais des termes définis à l’Article 3;
- l’origine des creux de tension et des coupures brèves est désormais décrite à l’Article 4.

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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.
International Standard IEC 61000-4-11 has been prepared by subcommittee 77A: EMC – Low
frequency phenomena, of IEC technical committee 77: Electromagnetic compatibility.
It forms Part 4-11 of IEC 61000. It has the status of a basic EMC publication in accordance
with IEC Guide 107.

Voltage dips, short interruptions and voltage variations immunity
tests for equipment with input current up to 16 A per phase
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61000 defines the immunity test methods and range of preferred test levels
for electrical and electronic equipment connected to low-voltage power supply networks for
voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations.
This document applies to electrical and electronic equipment having a rated input current not
exceeding 16 A per phase, for connection to 50 Hz or 60 Hz AC networks.
It does not apply to electrical and electronic equipment for connection to 400 Hz AC networks.
Tests for these networks will be covered by future IEC documents.
The object of this document is to establish a common reference for evaluating the immunity of
electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to voltage dips, short interruptions and
voltage variations.
NOTE 1 Voltage fluctuation immunity tests are covered by IEC 61000-4-14.
The test method documented in this document describes a consistent method to assess the
immunity of equipment or a system against a defined phenomenon.
NOTE 2 As described in IEC Guide 107, this is a basic EMC publication for use by product committees of the
IEC. As also stated in Guide 107, the IEC product committees are responsible for determining whether this
immunity test standard should be applied or not, and, if applied, they are responsible for defining the appropriate
test levels. Technical committee 77 and its sub-committees are prepared to co-operate with product committees in
the evaluation of the value of particular immunity tests for their products.

3.1
immunity (to a disturbance)
ability of a device, equipment or system to perform without degradation in the presence of an
electromagnetic disturbance
[SOURCE: IEC 60050-161:1990, 161-01-20]
3.2
voltage dip
sudden reduction of the voltage at a particular point of an electricity supply system below a
specified dip threshold followed by its recovery after a brief interval
Note 1 to entry: Typically, a dip is associated with the occurrence and termination of a short circuit or other
extreme current increase on the system or installations connected to it.
Note 2 to entry: A voltage dip is a two-dimensional electromagnetic disturbance, the level of which is determined
by both voltage and time (duration).
3.3
short interruption
sudden reduction of the voltage on all phases at a particular point of an electric supply system
below a specified interruption threshold followed by its restoration after a brief interval
Note 1 to entry: Short interruptions are typically associated with switchgear operations related to the occurrence
and termination of short circuits on the system or on installations connected to it.
3.4
residual voltage
minimum value of RMS voltage recorded during a voltage dip or short
interruption
Note 1 to entry: The residual voltage can be expressed as a value in volts or as a percentage or per unit value
relative to the reference voltage.
3.5
malfunction
breakdown of the ability of equipment to carry out intended functions or the execution of
unintended functions by the equipment
3.6
calibration
method to prove that the measurement equipment is in compliance with its specifications
Note 1 to entry: For the purposes of this document, calibration is applied to the test generator.
3.7
verification
set of operations which are used to check the test equipment system (e.g. the test generator
and the interconnecting cables) to demonstrate that the test system is functioning within the
specifications given in Clause 6
Note 1 to entry: The methods used for verification can be different from those used for calibration.
Note 2 to entry: The verification procedure of 6.1.3 is meant as a guide to ensure the correct operation of the test
generator and other items making up the test set-up so that the intended waveform is delivered to the EUT.

4 General
Electrical and electronic equipment can be affected by voltage dips, short interruptions or
voltage variations of the power supply.
Voltage dips and short interruptions occur due to faults in a (public or non-public) network or
in installations by sudden changes of large loads. In certain cases, two or more consecutive
dips or interruptions can occur. Voltage variations are caused by continuously varying loads
connected to the network.
These phenomena are random in nature and can be minimally characterized for the purpose
of laboratory simulation in terms of the deviation from the rated voltage and duration.
Consequently, different types of tests are specified in this document to simulate the effects of
abrupt voltage change. These tests are to be used only for particular and justified cases,
under the responsibility of product specification or product committees.
It is the responsibility of the product committees to establish which phenomena among the
ones considered in this document are relevant and to decide on the applicability of the test.
5 Test levels
5.1 General
The voltages in this document use the rated voltage for the equipment (U ) as a basis for the
T
voltage test level specification.
Where the equipment has a rated voltage range the following shall apply:
• if the voltage range does not exceed 20 % of the lower voltage specified for the rated
voltage range, a single voltage within that range may be specified as a basis for the test
level specification (U );

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) –
Part 4-11: Testing and measurement techniques –
Voltage dips, short interruptions and voltage variations immunity
tests for equipment with input current up to 16 A per phase
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61000 defines the immunity test methods and range of preferred test levels
for electrical and electronic equipment connected to low-voltage power supply networks for
voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations.
This document applies to electrical and electronic equipment having a rated input current not
exceeding 16 A per phase, for connection to 50 Hz or 60 Hz AC networks.
It does not apply to electrical and electronic equipment for connection to 400 Hz AC networks.
Tests for these networks will be covered by future IEC documents.
The object of this document is to establish a common reference for evaluating the immunity of
electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to voltage dips, short interruptions and
voltage variations.
NOTE 1 Voltage fluctuation immunity tests are covered by IEC 61000-4-14.
The test method documented in this document describes a consistent method to assess the
immunity of equipment or a system against a defined phenomenon.
NOTE 2 As described in IEC Guide 107, this is a basic EMC publication for use by product committees of the
IEC. As also stated in Guide 107, the IEC product committees are responsible for determining whether this
immunity test standard should be applied or not, and, if applied, they are responsible for defining the appropriate
test levels. Technical committee 77 and its sub-committees are prepared to co-operate with product committees in
the evaluation of the value of particular immunity tests for their products.

4 General
Electrical and electronic equipment can be affected by voltage dips, short interruptions or
voltage variations of the power supply.
Voltage dips and short interruptions occur due to faults in a (public or non-public) network or
in installations by sudden changes of large loads. In certain cases, two or more consecutive
dips or interruptions can occur. Voltage variations are caused by continuously varying loads
connected to the network.
These phenomena are random in nature and can be minimally characterized for the purpose
of laboratory simulation in terms of the deviation from the rated voltage and duration.
Consequently, different types of tests are specified in this document to simulate the effects of
abrupt voltage change. These tests are to be used only for particular and justified cases,
under the responsibility of product specification or product committees.
It is the responsibility of the product committees to establish which phenomena among the
ones considered in this document are relevant and to decide on the applicability of the test.
5 Test levels
5.1 General
The voltages in this document use the rated voltage for the equipment (U ) as a basis for the
T
voltage test level specification.
Where the equipment has a rated voltage range the following shall apply:
• if the voltage range does not exceed 20 % of the lower voltage specified for the rated
voltage range, a single voltage within that range may be specified as a basis for the test
level specification (U );
T
• in all other cases, the test procedure shall be applied for both the lowest and highest
voltages declared in the voltage range;
• guidance for the selection of test levels and durations is given in IEC TR 61000-2-8.
