Greetings Joe and everyone,
I can't speak for lab equipment, but I know that for UL 1950 (EN
60950/ IEC 950) my former employer (a recent NRTL who works/worked
closely with the biggest) would always test with the mains switch both
on and off. If you think about it, it makes sense to test with
How about the good old HP Harmonic Flicker Test Sysytem that Agilent was
thinking about discontinuing support on? (remember that thread a while
ago?) I don't know about the current (it seems like I remember 9-10A
max), but I know you could dial in any voltage and frequency
(DC-500Hz??) and it
Joe,
The situation which you describe is absolutely a failure. If you doubt this
(and I am not trying to be flip) try using two fingers (OF THE SAME HAND!)
instead of the meter. This is what your customers might experience. If you
have that much capacitance to hold a charge at that level after
Hello group,
Has anyone dealt with the industrial EMC test requirements for the
European Union?
In particular, EN 61326 (EMC requirements for Electrical Equipment for
Measurement,
Control and Laboratory Use) specifies surge test levels of 1 kV
line-to-line and 2 kV
line-to-ground.
Martin,
I use UL 1950 and in clause 2.1.10, which covers the same requirement, it
specifically states that the test be conducted with the power switch in both
positions on and off. I feel the NRTL is correct and your equipment does present
a hazard. You either need to move the capacitors after

We evaluate our laboratory equipment to UL 3101-1, CSA 1010.1 and EN
61010-1.
Section 6.10.3 of UL 3101-1 states If plug pins of cord-connected
equipment receive a charge from an internal capacitor, the pins shall not
be HAZARDOUS LIVE 5s after disconnection of the supply. We have always

Please do not take as flame.

Understand Scandinavia is part of EU or EFTA and LVD has to be applied to
electronics and electrical products. Scandinavia includes a number of
countries. Do they commonly accept one standard, I learnt German standard,
or different country standards?

Thanks, but you guys lost me a ways back. :) (Originally the conversation
was about single phase
two-phase etc wasn't it?) What is has evolved into is very interesting but

I wasn't going to weigh in on this, but here goes. For residential and
commercial non-industrial use, heating and air-conditioning must consume the
most power. Since these are feedback controlled systems, lowering power
consumption by reducing line voltage would only increase the amount of

Another option might be to use a variac (adjustable auto transformer) to
