Re: [PSES] EMC regs in by US state!

2022-05-10 Thread doug emcesd.com
Hi Manny and the group,

The test I am thinking of has a lot more average power. In a day or two I will 
post the state and some parameters of the test. The test I was talking about in 
my email was just something I was working on. This is a required standard state 
specified test.

Doug,

I haven't attended any of your presentations or seminars, or looked at your 
website recently.  But I did remember one of your postings back in Aug 2021.  
Here's what you said, plus my comment (plus many others commented as well).

I am currently working on a new video using my home built EMP generator. 
Nothing like a 1000 Ampere, 15 kV high voltage pulse to spice up the day! I am 
also working on a Marx generator to get extremely high voltage pulses as well. 
If you don’t hear anymore from me, I may have been vaporized.

8/19/21  MY COMMENT
Uh, let's see ... 1,000 A  x  15,000 V  =  15,000,000 W.
Not sure about the gain or directivity but that's alot of power!
Hopefully it's just a pulse or two in the microsecond range.
And hope you're in the desert.

Don't know what state you're referring to, but my guess is that this is the 
device you demonstrated.

most intense immunity test I have seen. I was demonstrating the test during a 
presentation to 70 engineers in Fullerton, CA last week. I was one of several 
speakers. All except me were recorded. Shortly into my demonstrations, I 
performed the test using a chair as a target for demo purposes. From 15-20 feet 
away, the demonstration took out the camera and my presentation was not 
recorded from that point! If you want to see how good a design is, this is a 
great test.

If you have attended one of my presentations/seminars, please do not post. I 
want to see how well known the state with an EMC rules making organization is. 
This is typical of the many kinds of unusual material I teach.

Doug --

All I can find is this:
https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=2
which suggests that no revision activity is currently going on.

Page 3 of the standard shows Heath Dehn as the NFPA staff liaison; you could 
contact Heath to see what they know about what you're looking for, and to also 
get a sense of where the committee is in the revision cycle.

Re: [PSES] EMC regs in by US state!

2022-05-10 Thread Ken Javor
No clue what state but if I had to guess (and that is all this) I would guess 
California.  Knee jerk reaction – seems to me that an ESD test that takes out 
an equipment 15 – 20 feet away is wildly overstressing.

[PSES] Lithium Battery -BSMI certification?

2022-05-10 Thread Ryan Jazz
Hello Members,
We have a product that uses a 3.7 VDC, 600 mAH secondary Lithium Ion battery.
The battery is manufactured in China and has an IEC 62133-2 test report and a 
UL 2054 report.
The battery also has a CQC report and certificate.

  *   Will this battery need a BSMI certification in order for the final 
product to be sold into Taiwan.
I appreciate and welcome all comments.
Kind Regards,
Ryan Jazz

[PSES] NFPA Code Adoption

2022-05-10 Thread Douglas E Powell
All,

In the past, I've used the NFPA 70 NEC Code Adoption web page
 many
times and even keep a web monitor to track periodic updates. Now I find
myself wanting something similar for the NFPA 2 Hydrogen Technologies
Code.  Does anyone know if such a web page exists?

Thanks! -Doug
