Hi Mike,
If the stringent ESD standard is "because a failure could be more
catastrophic", by the same token, please allow me to ask a question: "Do we
have more stringent ESD requirement for medical devices?"
Best Regards,
Barry

Barry,
I rather doubt these "feelings" would show up in any of the
Quite frankly, I don't think higher ESD voltages in power sub-stations is
justified from the standpoint of the voltage threat. Modern sub-station
control rooms are much like office environments and older stations are
concrete floors with wooden or metal furnature (and not much of it!).

Here's some quick thoughts as a start.
I use an HP-8449 microwave pre-amp for 1-22 GHz, but most of the time, I stop
at 18 GHz in my work. I have also bought very low-noise octave-band pre-amps
from Miteq, and I have seen some ads recently from Minicircuits Labs

Dear John,
UL746C is the correct standard you should be looking into and not
UL746D.
UL746D is a standard used for traceability of a molded part being
from a particular raw material. It is used when the UL end-product
standard requires the molder or fabricator of a polymeric part to be

I just found out that IEC61000-4-2 (ESD immunity) has it's first amendment.
What changes does it have?

Barry and Others,
Good suggestions. I have always wanted to take a antistatic bag and shake
coins, where only the coins were affected, and measure the response perhaps
out of the top of the bag. Then put a non-ESD bag with coins inside a
antistat bag, making sure in both cases that the coins hit ea
Help! I am entering a new world of test frequencies; 1-26 GHz. I am seeking
recommendations for suppliers for:
* 30 dB notch filter at 2.45 GHz
* 40 dB high pass filter with a lower cutoff at about 3.5 GHz
* 1-26 GHz preamp
All of this equipment would be mounted on the mast and
If instruments in power stations need more stringent ESD standard, what
about instruments in radio, TV, and cell stations? Did anybody have similar
extraordinary feelings there?

The problem, of course, is that your'e trying to filter surge signals (the
low frequency components from a 1.2/50us impulse get down to pretty low
frequencies) which get close to the frequencies you want to pass. It's
extremely difficult to make filters with sharp cut-offs that will handle 6kV

With regard to UL 746C, I came across the UL 746 series this morning.
They are as follows:
UL 746A Polymeric Materials - Short Term Property Evaluations
UL 746B " " Long" ""
UL 746C " " Use in Elec. Equip. Eval.
UL 746D "
Dear John,
If I understand, the camera dome is being used as the mounting
means for the cameras which are already Listed.
UL could probably List a camera dome just like they List "Office
Furnishings". Most probably they would like to ensure that when
fixed to the ceiling according to manufact

2, Is there a standard method of connecting the counterpoise to the

Hi Allen.
What kind of cable/wire are you using to connect your metal chassis and
your circuit ground to earth?
If you're using a small diameter cable, try using some wide earthing braid
instead (surface area is more important than actual metal volume because of
