Are fields stronger there? The geologic survey people should have those numbers.
In California the fields are about 50microT which is pretty insignificant. If you took a loop of wire that was 1 sq meter area and "flopped" it over in the earth's field you'd have to do it within half a second even to get 0.1 milliV. It would seem reasonable that testing to satellite magnetic field susceptibility limits would give you conservative results. - Robert - -----Original Message----- From: Peter Poulos <pet...@foxboro.com.au> To: emc-p...@ieee.org <emc-p...@ieee.org> List-Post: emc-pstc@listserv.ieee.org Date: Monday, January 24, 2000 8:49 PM Subject: Magnetic field immunity in the Arctic regions > >Hi folks. > >Has anyone had experience with demonstrating immunity to magnetic fields >that can be expected in the Arctic / north pole regions? > >I'm trying to find out what level of magnetic fields can be expected as a >worse case in order to demonstrate immunity of some electronic equipment. > >Is anyone aware of any standards that would cover this? > --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
