IEC 61000-3-2 Testing – Current Harmonics Certification Testing

IEC 61000-3-2 Testing – Current Harmonics

IEC 61000-3-2 / EN 61000-3-2 testing addresses the limitations of harmonic currents injected into the public supply system. The IEC 61000-3-2 test standard specifies limits of harmonic components of the input current which may be produced by equipment tested under specified conditions.

IEC-61000-3-2 is applicable to electrical and electronic equipment having an input current up to and including 16 A per phase, and intended to be connected to public low-voltage distribution systems. Arc welding equipment which is not professional equipment, with input current up to and including 16 A per phase, is included in IEC 61000 3 2 testing and EN 61000 3 2 testing. Arc welding equipment intended for professional use, as specified in IEC 60974-1, is excluded from the IEC61000-3-2 test.

The objective of EN 61000 3 2 testing is to set limits for harmonic emissions of equipment within its scope, so that, with due allowance for the emissions from other equipment, compliance with the limits ensures that harmonic disturbance levels do not exceed the compatibility levels defined in IEC 61000-2-2.
