They are complementary. >What is the difference between the two? Section 11 deals with disturbances of three types of voltage/time characteristic. Section 14 deals with disturbances of a fourth type. Of course, unless the relevant EMC product standard calls up section 11 or 14, you do not need to consider them. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk After swimming across the Hellespont, I felt like a Hero.
