FOREWORD
1) The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the 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, the IEC publishes International Standards. 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. The 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 the 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 National Committees.
3) The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the form
of standards, technical specifications, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National
Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
5) The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.
6) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject
of patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61204-3 has been prepared by subcommittee 22E: Stabilized power supplies, of IEC
technical committee 22: Power electronics.
International Standard IEC 61204-3 has been prepared by subcommittee 22E: Stabilized power
supplies, of IEC technical committee 22: Power electronics.
IEC 61204-3 cancels and replaces IEC 60478-3 published in 1989.
IEC 61204-3 has the status of a product standard.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
22E/75/FDIS 22E/78/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.

61204-3  IEC:2000 – 11 –
LOW VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLIES, DC OUTPUT –
Part 3: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
1 Scope and object
This part of IEC 61204 specifies electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for power
supply units (PSUs) providing d.c. output(s) up to 200 V at a power level of up to 30 kW,
operating from a.c. or d.c. source voltages of up to 600 V.
The devices are for free-standing operation or for use in other equipment when used with
adequate electrical and mechanical protection.
For certain specialized industrial PSUs, for example in the chemical and metallurgical industry,
other product EMC standards may exist. In this case these standards can be used as an
alternative.
Since many PSUs are used as components of larger units which are covered by different EMC
standards, a classification of power supplies and the applicability of the relevant EMC
standards is given in items a) and b) below. Further guidelines on classification are given in
annex A.
a) Power supplies intended for free-standing operation (individual apparatus).
This part of IEC 61204 is applicable to PSUs developed as a unit with a direct function and
sold on the market as a stand-alone unit.
b) Component power supplies
These can be divided into two categories:
1) Component power supplies considered as equivalent to apparatus.
This part of IEC 61204 is applicable to this category of component PSUs. These PSUs
are considered to be apparatus with respect to their EMC requirements, for example
those PSUs intended for use in installations or sold to the general public, cases where
no further EMC tests are anticipated. This does not include PSUs sold as spares for
repair which have been tested as part of an overall equipment.
2) Component power supplies intended for a professional assembler/installer
This part of IEC 61204 is applicable to this category of power supplies only as an aid to
specify relevant EMC requirements in order that various end product standards may be met.
These are component power supplies that are intended for incorporation into a final
product by a professional assembler. These products may be sold to a professional
assembler or placed on the market for specialized distribution and use. In neither case
do they perform in themselves a direct function for the user of an end-product. Further
EMC tests of the assembly are assumed.
NOTE After incorporation into a final product, the emission values can be altered (e.g. because of modified earth
connections).

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------

61204-3  IEC:2000 – 13 –
The object of this part of IEC 61204 is to define EMC limits and test methods for PSUs. It
includes limits for electromagnetic emissions which may cause interference to other electronic
equipment (e.g. radio receivers, measuring and computer devices), as well as electromagnetic
immunity limits for continuous and transient conducted and radiated disturbances including
electrostatic discharges.
This part of IEC 61204 defines the minimum electromagnetic compatibility requirements for
PSUs.
To comply with this part of IEC 61204, no additional EMC tests are required or necessary
beyond those stated here.
2 Normative references
