Metallic cables and other passive components test methods - Part 4-7: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) -Test method for measuring of transfer impedance Z<sub>T</sub> and screening attenuation a<sub>S</sub> or coupling attenuation a<sub>C</sub> of connectors and assemblies - Triaxial tube in tube method (IEC 62153-4-7:2021)
This part of IEC 62153 deals with the triaxial tube in tube method. This triaxial method is
suitable to determine the surface transfer impedance and/or screening attenuation and
coupling attenuation of mated screened connectors (including the connection between cable
and connector) and cable assemblies. This method could also be extended to determine the
transfer impedance, coupling or screening attenuation of balanced or multipin connectors and
multicore cable assemblies. For the measurement of transfer impedance and screening- or
coupling attenuation, only one test set-up is needed.

IEC 62153-4-7:2021 est disponible sous forme de IEC 62153-4-7:2021 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
L'IEC 62153-4-7:2021 traite de la méthode triaxiale en tubes concentriques. Cette méthode triaxiale convient pour déterminer l’impédance surfacique de transfert et/ou l’affaiblissement d’écrantage et l’affaiblissement de couplage de connecteurs écrantés et accouplés (y compris la connexion entre le câble et le connecteur) et de cordons. Cette méthode pourrait également être étendue pour déterminer l’impédance de transfert, l’affaiblissement de couplage ou l’affaiblissement d’écrantage de connecteurs symétriques ou à plusieurs broches et de cordons multiconducteurs. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2015, et son Amendement 1:2018. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
- l’Annexe E contient des informations relatives au mesurage direct de l’efficacité d’écrantage des connecteurs;
- l’Annexe F donne des informations normatives sur les paramètres du mode mixte;

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 N
