You're right, Gary. ITU K.20 (I believe) specifies testing of telecom ports connected to the network. The test levels are 1.5kV if primary protection is present, 4.0 kV if not. The waveform is 10 x 700. CISPR 24 actually references these test levels in Table 2.. One of the European common mod

ETS 300 386-2 requires a performance criteria R surge of 4kv Line-Ground for "other than telecommuncations centres, ac power ports" (Section 5.2.4.8). Keep in mind this standard only applies to Telecommunication Network Equipment, so depending on what you make, this may be irrelevant. Dave Heald

Gary EN55024:1998 , well at least my copy, also gives 2kV line to ground as the surge voltages. Your persistent buzzing may be coming form the reference test standard EN61000-4-5. It gives various surge voltages depending on the Installation Class of the equipment. Class 3 - Electrical Environme
