EN IEC 61000-6-1 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) - Part 6-1: General Standards - Immunity Standard for Residential, Commercial and Light Industrial Environments

The EN IEC 61000-6-1 standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) applies to electrical and electronic equipment intended for use in residential, commercial and light industrial environments. In this standard, immunity requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are met. There is no need for testing at frequencies where no requirements are specified.

This general electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) immunity standard applies if the EMC immunity standard is not available for the particular product or product family. This standard applies to devices intended to be connected directly to a low-voltage public network or to a dedicated direct current (DC) source intended to interface between the device and the low-voltage public network.

This standard also applies to devices powered by batteries or operated by a non-public, but non-industrial, low-voltage power distribution system and intended for use in the locations described below.

The environments covered by this standard are residential, commercial and light industrial locations, both indoors and outdoors. For example,

• Residential properties, e.g. houses, apartments
• Retail outlets, e.g. shops, supermarkets
• workplaces, eg offices, banks
• Public entertainment areas e.g. cinemas, theaterbe, dance halls
• Outdoors, e.g. gas stations, parking lots, leisure and sports centers
• Light industrial locations, e.g. workshops, laboratories, service centers

The locations described are not limited to these.

Places characterized by low voltage supply directly from the public mains are considered residential, commercial or light industrial. Immunity requirements were chosen to provide adequate immunity for devices in residential, commercial and light industrial locations. However, the levels do not cover extreme situations that will occur anywhere but have an extremely low probability of occurring.

Among the numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies it provides for businesses in various sectors, our organization also provides immunity testing services for residential, commercial and light industrial environments within the scope of EN IEC 61000-6-1 standard, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment. gives.
