Overview
EN IEC 62153-4-15:2021/A1:2024 is a European amendment to the international standard focusing on test methods for metallic cables and other passive components. This amendment addresses electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) by defining test procedures for measuring transfer impedance, screening attenuation, and coupling attenuation using a triaxial cell. Developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and adopted by CENELEC, this standard ensures consistency in assessing the EMC performance of metallic communication cables, coaxial cables, waveguides, and related passive components under standardized conditions.
Key updates include refined methods for expressing coupling attenuation through mixed mode scattering parameters and envelope line analysis, enhancing the accuracy and comparability of EMC-related cable tests.
Key Topics
- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Testing: Standardizes procedures related to measuring factors impacting a cable's ability to shield and resist electromagnetic interference.
- Transfer Impedance Measurement: Defines how to quantify the transfer impedance of metallic cables, indicating their susceptibility to electromagnetic coupling and interference.
- Screening and Coupling Attenuation: Outlines test methods to measure the effectiveness of cable shielding and the attenuation of coupled signals.
- Triaxial Cell Method: Utilizes a precise test setup involving a triaxial cell for reproducible measurement of transfer impedance and attenuation values.
- Mixed Mode Scattering Parameters: Incorporates advanced measurement techniques enabling assessment of coupling attenuation through mixed mode network analysis.
- Envelope Line Description: Introduces a standardized method for depicting coupling attenuation results via an envelope curve, facilitating trace comparison and interpretation.
- Normative Annex (Annex H): Provides mathematical formulations and guidance for calculating coupling attenuation using mixed mode parameters and for constructing the envelope line graphic representation.
Applications
EN IEC 62153-4-15:2021/A1:2024 applies to professionals and organizations involved in the design, testing, manufacture, and certification of:
- Metallic communication cables, including coaxial cables and waveguides.
- Passive components used in electromagnetic shielding and signal integrity applications.
- EMC laboratories performing compliance and conformity testing.
- Manufacturers seeking to validate shielding effectiveness and to reduce electromagnetic noise in cable assemblies.
- Telecommunications, broadcasting, automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors requiring reliable EMC performance in their cabling infrastructure.
By applying this standard, stakeholders ensure that cables and passive components meet international requirements for transfer impedance and screening performance, which is critical for minimizing electromagnetic interference in complex systems.
