THE SKINNY ON IEC 61000-4-11

IEC 61000-4-11 is a part of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61000 series, which focuses on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing and measurement techniques. Specifically, IEC 61000-4-11 addresses the testing and assessment of voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations on electrical power systems.

The standard provides guidelines for simulating and assessing the effects of power supply variations on electrical and electronic devices. It defines the test procedures, test levels, and performance criteria for measuring the ability of equipment to withstand voltage variations within predefined limits.

See our EMC Precompliance testing and conducted immunity sections for in depth overvies of test planning, setup and other conisderations.

IEC 61000-4-11 defines specific test procedures and parameters to evaluate the performance of electrical devices. The standard outlines the test setup, test levels, and measurement techniques required to simulate and assess voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations.

During the testing process, the device under evaluation is subjected to various predefined voltage disturbances, while its performance and functionality are monitored. The results are then compared against the specified performance criteria to determine compliance.
