I'd be interested as well, for two reasons. 1) I think the requirement is a bit out of date, and really only discusses bringing in two DC power feeds, A and B. That however seems more adapted to the days of simpler systems that would take the power through some steering diodes and take

Hi Gert, Thanks for the reply. EN61000-6-2 calls EN61000-4-6, so I was indirectly referencing that standard. I neglected to apply the equations of section 6.4.1 as pointed out to me by Brian Kunde. My thanks to him and to you for your offer. Kind Regards, Sam Wismer Engineering Manager

I suspect that this will depend very strongly on the characteristics of specific type of resistor. Further, there will undoubtedly be very significant differences from manufacturer to manufacturer, in the ability to absorb stresses well beyond normal design intent. I think it would be rather hard

With regards to "beryllium" fingers, they are not beryllium. They are an alloy of copper and beryllium, with the standard C17000 alloy containing only 1.7% beryllium. There is no danger in simply handling these fingers. To be sure, there is a danger in breathing in dust from machining actual ber

Hi Group, EN 61000-6-2 calls for severity level 3, or 10Vrms for conducted disturbances. This equates to 37dBm which is 7dB higher than the upper limit my receiver will handle (during calibration of the CDN). I've tried to use an attenuator and compensate for it in my readings, but this creates a

Massimo, All the tests that I've seen for evaluating the peak-pulse-power handling capabilities of resistors are based on charging a bank of capacitors to a high voltage, then applying this energy (E = 1/2 * c * V * V) to the part/equipment-under-test through a low-resistance low-inductance switch
