Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 6-2: Generic standards - Immunity standard for industrial environments

applies to electrical and electronic apparatus intended for use in industrial environments, as described below. Immunity requirements in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No tests need to be performed at frequencies where no requirements are specified. This generic EMC immunity standard is applicable if no relevant dedicated product or product-family EMC immunity standard exists. This standard applies to apparatus intended to be connected to a power network supplied from a high or medium voltage transformer dedicated to the supply of an installation feeding manufacturing or similar plant, and intended to operate in or in proximity to industrial locations, as described below. This standard applies also to apparatus which is battery operated and intended to be used in industrial locations. The environments encompassed by this standard are industrial, both indoor and outdoor. The immunity requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of immunity for apparatus at industrial locations. The levels do not, however, cover extreme cases, which may occur at any location, but with an extremely low probability of occurrence. Not all disturbance phenomena have been included for testing purposes in this standard, but only those considered as relevant for the equipment covered by this standard. These test requirements represent essential electromagnetic compatibility immunity requirements.

Compatibilité électromagnétique (CEM) - Partie 6-2: Normes génériques - Norme d'immunité pour les environnements industriels

S'applique aux appareils électriques et électroniques destinés à être utilisés dans des environnements industriels, tels qu'ils sont décrits ci-dessous. Cette partie couvre les exigences d'immunité dans la gamme de fréquences de 0 kHz à 400 GHz. Il n'est pas nécessaire de réaliser des essais aux fréquences pour lesquelles aucune exigence n'est spécifiée. Cette norme générique d'immunité CEM s'applique en l'absence de norme d'immunité CEM applicable spécifique à un produit ou à une famille de produits. Les appareils couverts par cette norme sont destinés à être raccordés à un réseau d'énergie alimenté par un transformateur haute tension ou moyenne tension réservé à l'alimentation d'une l'installation alimentant un site industriel ou analogue, et destinés à fonctionner à l'intérieur ou à proximité des sites industriels, comme défini ci-dessous. Cette norme s'applique également aux appareils qui sont alimentés par piles ou accumulateurs et qui sont destinés à être utilisés dans des sites industriels. Les environnements couverts par cette norme sont les environnements industriels, intérieurs et extérieurs. Les exigences d'immunité ont été choisies pour assurer un niveau adéquat d'immunité pour les appareils utilisés sur des sites industriels. Ces niveaux ne couvrent pas cependant les cas extrêmes qui peuvent apparaître, mais avec une très faible probabilité, sur un site quelconque. Cette norme ne comporte pas, pour les besoins des essais, tous les phénomènes perturbateurs mais uniquement ceux considérés comme applicables pour les appareils couverts par la norme. Ces exigences d'essais représentent les exigences essentielles de compatibilité électromagnétique concernant l'immunité.

Elektromagnetna združljivost (EMC) - 6-2. del: Osnovni standardi - Odpornost za industrijska okolja

Ta standard se uporablja za električne in elektronske naprave, ki so namenjene uporabi v industrijskih okoljih, kot je opisano spodaj. Zajema zahteve glede odpornosti v frekvenčnem razponu od 0 Hz do 400 GHz. Za frekvence, za katere ni določenih zahtev, ni treba opraviti preskusov. Ta generični standard o odpornosti proti elektromagnetnim motnjam se uporablja, če ne obstaja ustrezen poseben standard o odpornosti proti elektromagnetnim motnjam za izdelek ali družino izdelkov. Ta standard se uporablja za naprave, ki so namenjene za povezavo z napajalnim omrežjem, ki se napaja iz visoko- ali srednjenapetostnega transformatorja, namenjenega za napajanje inštalacije, ki napaja proizvodni ali podoben obrat, in za delovanje v industrijskih okoljih ali v njihovi bližini, kot je opisano spodaj. Ta standard se uporablja tudi za naprave, ki delujejo na baterije in so namenjene za uporabo v industrijskih okoljih. Ta standard zajema industrijska okolja, in sicer v zaprtih prostorih in na prostem. Zahteve glede odpornosti so izbrane tako, da zagotavljajo ustrezno raven odpornosti naprav v industrijskih okoljih. Vendar stopnje ne zajemajo izjemnih primerov, ki se lahko zgodijo na kateri koli lokaciji, čeprav je verjetnost zelo majhna. Ta standard ne zajema vseh motenj za namene preskušanja, ampak le motnje, ki so pomembne za opremo, zajeto v tem standardu. Te zahteve za preskus predstavljajo osnovne zahteve glede odpornosti v zvezi z elektromagnetno združljivostjo.

Overview

EN IEC 61000-6-2:2019 (published by CLC) is the generic EMC immunity standard for industrial environments. It specifies immunity test requirements for electrical and electronic apparatus intended for industrial locations (indoor and outdoor) where no product-specific EMC immunity standard exists. The standard covers the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz and addresses continuous and transient, conducted and radiated disturbances to ensure an adequate level of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for industrial equipment.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and applicability: Applies to apparatus intended for connection to industrial power networks (including networks supplied from high/medium voltage transformers), DC distribution, and battery-operated equipment used in industrial locations. Used when no dedicated product-family standard is available.
  • Immunity test coverage: Defines essential immunity tests including electrostatic discharge (ESD), radiated RF fields, electrical fast transients (EFT), surge, conducted RF disturbances, power-frequency magnetic fields, and voltage dips/interruptions. Tests reference the IEC 61000-4-x series.
  • Ports and test levels: Test requirements are organized by equipment port type (enclosure, signal/control, DC/AC power ports) with defined applicability and performance criteria per port.
  • Performance criteria and conditions: Includes criteria for acceptable operation during/after disturbances and specifies test conditions, measurement uncertainty considerations and documentation requirements.
  • Technical updates: The 2019 (edition 3) revision improves environmental description, extends RF test frequency range, revises test levels, introduces requirements per IEC 61000-4-34, adjusts EFT repetition frequency, and adds guidance for product committees (Annex A).

Practical applications and users

  • Manufacturers and design engineers of industrial equipment use this standard to:
    • Define immunity requirements when no product-specific standard exists.
    • Guide EMC design, component selection and system hardening for industrial use.
    • Prepare for laboratory and on-site immunity testing and pre‑compliance validation.
  • EMC test laboratories and certification bodies use it to develop test plans and assess conformity for industrial apparatus.
  • System integrators, maintenance teams and procurement specialists reference the standard to ensure equipment robustness in manufacturing plants, process control, robotics, power distribution and other industrial installations.

Related standards

This standard is used together with the IEC/EN 61000-4 series for test methods, including but not limited to:

  • IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD), 4-3 (radiated RF), 4-4 (EFT), 4-5 (surge), 4-6 (conducted RF)
  • IEC 61000-4-8 (power-frequency magnetic field), 4-11 and 4-34 (voltage dips/interruptions)
  • IEC 61000-4-20/21/22 (TEM/reverberation/anechoic chamber methods)

EN IEC 61000-6-2:2019 is essential reading for anyone responsible for ensuring electromagnetic immunity of equipment intended for industrial environments.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) –

Part 6-2: Generic standards –
Immunity standard for industrial environments

1 Scope
This part of IEC 61000 for EMC immunity requirements applies to electrical and electronic
equipment intended for use in industrial locations, as described below. Immunity requirements
in the frequency range 0 Hz to 400 GHz are covered. No tests need to be performed at
frequencies where no requirements are specified.
This generic EMC immunity standard is applicable if no relevant dedicated product or product-
family EMC immunity standard exists.
This standard applies to electrical and electronic equipment intended to be operated in
industrial locations, as defined in 3.7, both indoor and outdoor.
This standard applies also to equipment intended to be directly connected to a DC distribution
network or which is battery operated, and intended to be used in industrial locations.
This standard defines the immunity test requirements for equipment specified in the scope in
relation to continuous and transient, conducted and radiated disturbances, including
electrostatic discharges.
The immunity requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of immunity for
equipment operating within industrial locations. The levels do not, however, cover extreme
cases, which may occur at any location, but with an extremely low probability of occurrence.
Not all disturbance phenomena have been included for testing purposes in this standard, but
only those considered as relevant for the equipment covered by this standard. These test
requirements represent essential electromagnetic compatibility immunity requirements. They
are specified for each port considered.
NOTE 1 Information on other disturbance phenomena is given in IEC TR 61000-4-1.
NOTE 2 Safety considerations are not covered by this standard.
NOTE 3 In special cases, situations will arise where the level of disturbances may exceed the levels specified in
this standard, for example where equipment is installed in proximity to industrial, scientific and medical equipment
as defined in CISPR 11 or where a hand-held transmitter is used in close proximity to equipment. In these
instances, special mitigation measures may have to be employed.
The industrial environment may be changed by special mitigation measures. Where such
measures can be shown to produce an electromagnetic environment equivalent to the
residential, commercial or light-industrial environment, then the generic standard for this
environment, or the relevant product standard, may be applied.
