IEC/TR 61000-3-15:2011(E) is concerned with the critical assessment of existing and emerging national and international standards for single and multi-phase dispersed generation systems up to 75 A per phase, particularly converters connected to the public supply low voltage network. This Technical Report intends to serve as a starting point and to ultimately pave the way for the definition of appropriate EMC requirements and test conditions. This Technical Report is limited to EMC issues (immunity and emission) up to 9 kHz and does not include other aspects of connection of generators to the grid. This Technical Report focuses on emission caused by distributed generation (mainly harmonics and inter-harmonics, DC emissions flicker, rapid voltage changes and fluctuations), as well as immunity aspects to normally occurring events in the public supply network (voltage dips and short interruptions, frequency variations, harmonics and interharmonics). Every effort has been made to utilize already existing emission and immunity standards, including the test set-up and existing test equipment in use.

This part of IEC 61000 provides guidance on principles which can be used as the basis for determining the requirements for the connection of unbalanced installations (i.e. three-phase installations causing voltage unbalance) to MV, HV and EHV public power systems (LV installations are covered in other IEC documents). For the purposes of this report, an unbalanced installation means a three-phase installation (which may be a load or a generator) that produces voltage unbalance on the system. The connection of single-phase installations is not specifically addressed, as the connection of such installations is under the control of the system operator or owner. The general principles however may be adapted when considering the connection of single-phase installations. The primary objective is to provide guidance to system operators or owners on engineering practices, which will facilitate the provision of adequate service quality for all connected customers. In addressing installations, this document is not intended to replace equipment standards for emission limits.
The report addresses the allocation of the capacity of the system to absorb disturbances. It does not address how to mitigate disturbances, nor does it address how the capacity of the system can be increased.
Since the guidelines outlined in this report are necessarily based on certain simplifying assumptions, there is no guarantee that this approach will always provide the optimum solution for all unbalanced load situations. The recommended approach should be used with flexibility and judgment as far as engineering is concerned, when applying the given assessment procedures in full or in part.
The system operator or owner is responsible for specifying requirements for the connection of installations which may cause unbalance on the system. The disturbing installation is to be understood as the complete customer’s installation (i.e. including balanced and unbalanced parts).
Problems related to unbalance fall into two basic categories.
• Unbalanced installations that draw negative-sequence currents which produce negativesequence voltages on the supply system. Examples of such installations include arc
furnaces and traction loads (typically connected to the public network at HV), and three phase installations where the individual loads are not balanced (typically connected at MV and LV). Negative-sequence voltage superimposed onto the terminal voltage of rotating machines can produce additional heat losses. Negative-sequence voltage can also cause non-characteristic harmonics (typically positive-sequence 3rd harmonic) to be produced by power converters.
• Unbalanced installations connected line-to-neutral can also draw zero-sequence currents which can be transferred or not into the supply system depending on the type of
connection of the coupling transformer. The flow of zero-sequence currents in a grounded neutral system causes zero-sequence unbalance affecting line-to-neutral voltages. This is not normally controlled by setting emission limits, but rather by system design and maintenance. Ungrounded-neutral systems and phase-to-phase connected installations are not, however, affected by this kind of voltage unbalance.
This report gives guidance only for the coordination of the negative-sequence type of voltage unbalance between different voltage levels in order to meet the compatibility levels at the point of utilisation. No compatibility levels are defined for zero-sequence type of voltage unbalance as this is often considered as being less relevant to the coordination of unbalance levels compared to the first type of voltage unbalance. However, for situations where a nonzero impedance exists between neutral and earth with the system still being effectively grounded (i.e., where the ratio between zero-sequence, X0 and positive sequence reactance X1 is 0 < X0/X1 ≤ 3), this type of voltage unbalance can be of concern especially when the type of connection of t

IEC TR 61000-3-18:2024 which is a technical report, reports on the development of a methodology for adapting IEC equipment emission limits from IEC 61000-3-2 and IEC 61000-3-12 for use in regions not covered by these documents. It identifies gaps in the existing equipment emission limit standards concerning their international applicability and identifies public power system characteristics important for the evaluation of harmonic voltage performance. The purpose of adapting the above-mentioned IEC equipment harmonic emission standards in a particular region is to maintain similar electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of equipment up to 75 A per phase in the public power systems in those regions.
NOTE The boundaries between the various voltage levels differ amongst different countries (see IEC 60050‑601:1985, 601-01-28). This document uses the following terms when referring to 50 Hz and 60 Hz system voltages:
- low voltage (LV) refers to Un ≤ 1 kV;
- medium voltage (MV) refers to 1 kV  - high voltage (HV) refers to 35 kV  EMC requirements can have economic and societal impacts; these have not been considered in the development of this document. The consideration of these factors generally occurs in the technical committees working on development and maintenance of emission limit standards.

IEC 61000-4-23:2016(E) provides a protective devices test method for HEMP and other radiated disturbances. It is primarily intended for HEMP testing but can be applied to other externally generated radiated disturbances where appropriate. It provides a brief description of the most important concepts for testing of shielding elements. For each test, the following basic information is provided:
- theoretical foundation of the test (the test concepts);
- test set-up including outside-to-in and inside-to-out measurements;
- required equipment;
- test procedures;
- data processing.
This international standard does not provide information on requirements for specific levels for testing. Due to the available space, a transmitting antenna position outside the barrier has mainly been suggested. However, nowadays, many EMP protection facilities in practical use do not actually have enough space available outside the electromagnetic barrier due to physical constraints such as concrete walls or soil to allow the method described in IEC 61000-4-23:2000 (edition 1) to be applied correctly. From experience many facilities have available space for a 1 m separation or less only. Therefore, in many practical cases it is not possible to measure shielding effectiveness according to the test method of previous documents. The constructors for EMP protection facilities are also unwilling to build facilities with extra space for measurements with the transmitting antenna outside the barrier due to the great expense and inefficiency of the operational working area for new or existing buildings. This document provides additionally a method that allows the transmitting antenna to be placed inside the enclosure and the receiving antenna outside the barrier ('inside-to-out' method). Annex F includes test set-up and procedure examples. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2000. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) updates to the shielding effectiveness (SE) test method in Clause 5;
b) a new Annex F describing methods for testing 'inside-to-out' has been added.

CISPR 12:2025 The limits in this document are designed to provide protection in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 000 MHz for off-board receivers. Compliance with this document does not guarantee adequate protection for receivers nearer than 10 m to the vehicle, boat or device. This document applies to the emission of electromagnetic energy that can cause interference to radio reception and which is emitted from:
1) vehicles propelled by an internal combustion engine (ICE), electrical means or both (see 3.1.34);
2) boats propelled by an ICE, electrical means or both (see 3.1.4). Boats are tested in the same manner as vehicles except where they have unique characteristics as explicitly stated in this document;
3) devices equipped with ICE (see 3.1.9). In the case of hybrid devices (e.g. equipped with both ICE and traction batteries), only the ICE mode is included in this document;
4) inboard and outboard boat engines and motors [i.e. equipped with ICE, electric motor (EM), or both], when marketed independently.
See Annex D for a flow chart and a list of examples to help determine the applicability of CISPR 12.
This document does not apply to aircraft, household appliances, medical devices, traction systems (railway engine or locomotive, streetcar or tram and electric trolley bus), vehicle, boat and device off-board chargers or to incomplete vehicles, boats and devices. In the case of a dual-mode trolley bus (e.g. propelled by power from either AC/DC mains or an ICE), the ICE propulsion system is included, but the EM propulsion portion of the vehicle is excluded from this document. In addition, domestic helper robots, such as household cleaning robots, hotel service robots and personal safety robots are also excluded from the scope of this document.
NOTE 1 Other than inboard or outboard boat engines and motors that are marketed independently, this document does not apply to components or incomplete products, such as an ICE, an incomplete vehicle or boat that has not yet been fitted with an ICE or EM, or spare parts. This document only applies to the final product, which is equipped with all applicable parts and components to be able to function as intended.
NOTE 2 Appliances without ICE for typical housekeeping and service functions in the household and similar environment are covered by the requirements of CISPR 14-1[1].
NOTE 3 Protection of receivers used on board the same vehicle as the disturbance source(s) are covered by CISPR 25[2].
This document does not prescribe measurement methods or limits for conducted disturbances, for the charging mode of operation, where the (electric or hybrid) vehicle or boat is connected to power mains, either directly (i.e. plug-in vehicle or boat) or indirectly (i.e. wireless power charging). The user is referred to appropriate IEC and CISPR standards, which define measurement techniques and limits for this condition.
NOTE 4 See IEC 61851-21-1[3] for road vehicles and IEC 61000-6-3[4], IEC 61000-6-4[5] and IEC 61000-6-8[6] for other types of vehicles or boats.
The emission requirements in this document are not applicable to the intentional transmissions from a radio transmitter, as defined by the ITU-R, including its spurious emissions.
Equipment that is covered by other CISPR product and product family emission standards are excluded from the scope of this document, except where they include ICE(s). In the latter case, the equipment complies with this document in all modes of operation where the ICE(s) is(are) active.
NOTE 5 The other CISPR product or product family emission standard can also apply to the equipment for those modes of operation where the ICE(s) is (are) not active. In case the ICE(s) is (are) always in operation, the other CISPR product or product family emission standard can still apply, for verifying the emissions from the other components and circuitry of the equipment.
