This part of IEC 61 000 describes the immunity test levels and related test methods for electrical and electronic equipment and systems exposed to high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP) environments. It defines ranges of immunity test levels and establishes test procedures. Specifications for test equipment and instrumentation test set-up, test procedures,pass/fail criteria, and test documentation requirements are also defined by this standard.These tests are intended to demonstrate the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment when subjected to HEMP radiated and conducted electromagnetic disturbances. For radiated disturbance immunity tests, specifications are defined in this standard both for small test facilities and large HEMP simulators.
