What is PD IEC TR 61000‑1 - Electromagnetic compatibility about?
PD IEC TR 61000‑1 is a series on Electromagnetic compatibility. Electromagnetic compatibility is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment, by limiting the unintentional generation, propagation and reception of electromagnetic energy which may cause unwanted effects such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) or even physical damage in operational equipment.
The objective of PD IEC TR 61000‑1 is to provide information about the current conditions, and project future developments, of prevailing phase angles, predominantly for the 3rd and 5th harmonic currents, on public supply networks. This objective is accomplished by monitoring several networks, and efforts to forecast the effects of changes in technologies.
PD IEC TR 61000‑1 presents information to guide the discussion about the effectiveness of potential mitigation techniques and the generalization of effects of the prevailing angle positions of selected current harmonics. PD IEC TR 61000‑1 mainly deals with the phase angles of the 3rd and 5th harmonic currents, but also contains information about other harmonics.
Who is PD IEC TR 61000‑1 - Electromagnetic compatibility for?
PD IEC TR 61000‑1 on Electromagnetic compatibility is applicable to:
- Telecommunication equipment manufacturers
- Telecommunication component manufacturers
- Design engineers
- Quality control personnel
Why should you use PD IEC TR 61000‑1 - Electromagnetic compatibility?
The goal of Electromagnetic compatibility is the correct operation of different equipment in a common electromagnetic environment. It is also the name given to the associated branch of electrical engineering.
PD IEC TR 61000‑1 implementation provides statistical evaluations aimed at quantifying the level of diversification of the prevailing harmonic current phase angles, and, where possible, identify methods to reduce the overall emissions of dominant harmonics in the network.
The main goal of PD IEC TR 61000‑1 is to determine or verify the existing phase angle (mainly of the 5th harmonic) and to assess the possible influences of future developments – such as changes in lighting types and other electronic equipment.
PD IEC TR 61000‑1 is exclusively applicable to public low-voltage electricity supply networks as development on the public level would be more efficient to make the present work more convenient for the consumer. Using PD IEC TR 61000‑1 you can understand specifications about the current conditions, and project future developments, of prevailing phase angles, predominantly for the 3rd and 5th harmonic currents, on public supply networks.
