1 INTRODUCTION This document is the “Electromagnetic Compatibility Test Plan” for the items based on Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPSs) and similar Switch Electronic Load Controllers (SELCs). Items have been purchased to perform a study on their emissions on the behalf of the Radiocommunications Agency (Contract Number AY 4398). A description of these items is presented in the York EMC Services Ltd Document 8202CR1 [1] previously submitted to the Agency.

The test plan identifies the EMC standards, which will be used in order that comparisons can be made between the items and defines the test methodology and how the equipment is to be configured, exercised and monitored whilst EMC testing is performed (SMPSs and SELCs technology based items). Note that although some items may have product specific standards, which are used for compliance testing, in order that direct comparisons can be made between items for the purposes of the investigation, a common standard will be used to test all items. Since the testing will be standardised and not product specific, testing will not be UKAS accredited.

The test plan is structured as follows: In the first section a list of the appropriate standards is presented with their limits and frequency ranges. The second section follows with a general description of the testing layout (for both SMPSs and SELCs technology based devices) and includes general schematic diagrams of the test setup. The third section summarises the information required by YES to perform the data analysis (data files, graphical format of pictures, etc).

Finally, each of the items has specific test plans and these are presented in the Appendices. For each of the items, the system overview, the technical specification (value of output current/voltage for each outputs), the test arrangement (with specific description of the cabling layout) and the operating state is presented. This will enable the Radio Technology and Compatibility Group (RTCG) staff to perform the relevant, agreed measurements on each of the items.

YES will provide a document to the RTCG which will detail how to test each of the EUTs with 25%, 50% and 100% load [2]. The loads will be specifically designed for each of the items.

All EMC testing will be performed at the RTCG as defined in the YES document 8130CR1 [3] and the start of the testing is planned from the 17th of February.

All EUTs and loads will be delivered at the RTCG for testing by the 12th of February.

2 EMC STANDARDS SMPSs and electrical devices containing SELCs are required to be in conformance with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC and the implementing UK regulations SI 2372 1992. Therefore EMC testing is required and as proposed in the tender [3], the following tests will be applied to the SMPSs and SELCs purchased for this research project:

• Harmonic Emission Testing (EN61000-3-2:2000 [4])

• Conducted Emission Testing (EN55022:1998 [5])

• Radiated Magnetic Field Emission Testing (EN55011:1998 [6] and EN55015:2001 [7])

• Radiated Electric Field Emission Testing (EN55022:1998)

Details of the standards are specified below with their frequency range and limits. For the measurements of the radiated magnetic field, two tests are proposed: testing as specified by EN55011 which uses a 0.6m CISPR loop antenna and EN55015 which uses a Van Veen loop antenna. The testing will be predominantly performed as in EN55011 but for some items1 a comparative study will be performed and therefore both measurement methods will be used.

Although product specific standards related to conducted and radiated emissions are available for items such as the Hammer Drill (item 8), for the purposes of this investigation the test methods and limits will be confined to EN55022: 1998 in order that comparisons may be made.

Similarly, harmonic emission testing to EN61000-3-2: 2000 defines certain classes of device and the limits applicable. Again, in order that comparisons can be made, it is proposed that all testing will be performed to Class D specifications, including items, which are nominally excluded from testing by virtue of being less than 75W. This is the class applicable to personal computers and peripherals.

Testing to EN61000-3-3:1994 [8] flicker measurements was deemed not necessary for the purposes of this investigation. Flicker effects are related to changes in load current during the test period. During this investigation, although testing will be done at differing loads there will be no dynamic changes of load during the test.

1 It is proposed that three EUTs will be used for the comparative study (EUT with the lowest, highest and medium

emission).

3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE TESTING LAYOUT Since this project is based on the investigation of the EM emissions from SMPSs and SELCs, it is important that the EMC testing is performed as defined in the relevant EMC standards. Those standards have been listed in section 2. A brief description of the testing layout is presented below.

For all measurements, cables should be bundle together to minimise loop areas unless otherwise stated (In the case of a multiple output, the cables should be laid parallel to each other as a single cable).

3.1 Harmonic Emissions Test Setup The test setup will be as described in EN61000-3-2: 2000.

A “clean” AC mains supply should be used to remove any effects due to existing variations or noise on the public AC. Mains. Harmonic emissions from the unit shall be measured from 0-2kHz, i.e., up to the 40th harmonic of the AC mains 50Hz fundamental. Measurement limits are applied applicable to the class of the EUT as detailed in the standard.

It is recommended that pre-test checks shall be performed using for example a YES HFG01[10].

3.2 Conducted Emissions Test Setup The test setup will be as described in EN55022 [5]. Testing should be performed within a screened room. Details are as indicated below.

3.3 Magnetic Emissions Test Setup Magnetic testing will be performed on all the items supplied using the magnetic loop antenna [6]. Subject to the results obtained using this method, comparative testing will be performed on three of the samples using a Van Veen loop measuring system [7]. The samples will be chosen by YES dependent on results obtained using the magnetic loop antenna.

Emissions from the EUT shall be measured in both parallel and perpendicular polarisation. The 3m separation distance may be required to be shortened to 1m if insufficient levels of magnetic emissions are being measured.

3.5.2 Van Veen Loop

Figure 7: Radiated magnetic field measurement using the Van Veen loop

The EUTs and loads will be placed in the centre of the Van Veen loop and the measurements will be performed as specified in CISPR16-2 [9]

3.4 Radiated Emissions Test Setup The test setup will be as described in EN55022 [5]. Pre-compliance testing should be performed within an anechoic chamber to determine frequencies of interest. Radiated emissions from the EUT shall be measured in both horizontal and vertical polarisation and measurements performed on all sides of the EUT. Peak emissions falling within 6dB of the limit line shall be investigated using the Open Area Test Site (OATS).

Figure 8: Typical test setup for radiated emissions within the anechoic room at 3m separation.

Final radiated emission testing should be performed in an Open Area Test Site (OATS) at an antenna to EUT separation of 10m in accordance with EN55022, maximising the emissions on polarity, height and EUT orientation. A separation of 3m may be used if background noise makes measurement difficult at 10m. The measurement distance should be clearly recorded and test limits amended, as necessary.

4 INFORMATION REQUIRED BY YES All measurements will be performed at the RTCG laboratory while YES will be performing the data analysis. The format of the information will have to be compatible with both the RTCG and YES.

4.1 Data from measurements A large number of measurements will be taken over the period of testing and it is necessary that the format in which the data will be saved is “readable” by YES.

All data supplied to YES should take into account of the antenna factor and loss due to cable attenuation. The preferred format is Excel type (version 1998 or 2000) format with proper annotation of the measurements performed (Type of measurement, EUT number, load values, etc).

4.2 Visual Recording of the Testing When performing EMC testing, it is important to take a visual recording of the test setup. This is usually achieved by taking photographs of the overall testing area (Chamber, OATS, EUT and measuring antennas) as well as detailed pictures specific to the EUTs. The specific pictures should include details of the relative distance (using a ruler on the side of the EUT preferably) and as well as details of the cabling layout of the EUTs. The preferred format is Joint Picture Expert Group (JPEG format).

4.3 Reporting of the testing RTCG will provide a brief MS-Word summary report for each item. The report will contain the dates of testing, equipment used, engineers name, any deviation from the test plan, any observations. An index of Excel spreadsheets and photos relevant to that equipment will also be provided.

MS-Word, Excel spreadsheets and pictures files will be kept in a folder identifying the equipment and passed on to YES in an electronic format.
