Overview

CISPR 14-2:1997/AMD2:2008 is an amendment published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), focusing on the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for household appliances, electric tools, and similar apparatus. This document specifically addresses Part 2: Immunity, serving as a product family standard to ensure these devices maintain functional integrity when exposed to electromagnetic disturbances.

The amendment updates testing procedures, classification, and conformity assessment methods essential for manufacturers and testing laboratories to evaluate the immunity of electrical products against various electromagnetic phenomena. CISPR 14-2 Amendment 2 ensures that household electrical products and tools meet stringent immunity criteria to operate reliably in electromagnetic environments, reducing failures and interference.

Key Topics

  • Electromagnetic Immunity Testing
    The amendment details immunity test methods in line with IEC 61000 series standards, including tests for:

    • Electrostatic discharge (IEC 61000-4-2)
    • Radiated radio-frequency electromagnetic fields (IEC 61000-4-3)
    • Electrical fast transients/bursts (IEC 61000-4-4)
    • Surge immunity (IEC 61000-4-5)
    • Conducted disturbances induced by radio-frequency fields (IEC 61000-4-6)
    • Voltage dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations (IEC 61000-4-11)
  • Scope & Product Family Standard
    Provides clarifications on the scope related to household appliances, electric tools, and similar apparatus, specifying immunity requirements applicable across product families for efficient conformity assessment.

  • Terminology and Definitions
    Introduces specific terms such as clock frequency, defining the fundamental frequency of device signals except those contained only within integrated circuits, to standardize test criteria and documentation.

  • Surge Test Details
    Amended surge tests include precise conditions such as applying positive pulses at 90° and negative pulses at 270° relative to AC line voltage phase, specifying line-to-earth and line-to-line impedance values for comprehensive immunity evaluation.

  • Voltage Dip and Interruption Test Updates
    Revises voltage dip duration and percentage levels for input AC power ports, establishing clear test setups to simulate real-world voltage fluctuations.

  • Assessment Methods
    Emphasizes statistical evaluation for conformity, referencing CISPR/TR 16-4-3 for guidance on uncertainties and statistical considerations in electromagnetic compliance testing.

Applications

  • Household Appliances
    Ensures refrigerators, washing machines, microwaves, and other home appliances resist electromagnetic disturbances, preventing malfunctions that could compromise safety and performance.

  • Electric Tools
    Guarantees immunity of handheld and stationary electric tools to electromagnetic interference, supporting operational reliability in industrial, commercial, and residential environments.

  • Electrical and Electronic Apparatus
    Applies to similar apparatus categories requiring consistent EMC immunity, including lighting equipment and consumer electronics, supporting regulatory compliance and market access.

  • Product Family Testing
    Enables manufacturers to apply a unified immunity standard across a product family, reducing redundant testing efforts and accelerating time-to-market.

Related Standards

  • CISPR 14-1:2005 – Electromagnetic compatibility requirements for emission testing on household appliances and electric tools. Complements Part 2 by focusing on emission aspects.

  • IEC 61000 Series – Fundamental testing procedures for EMC immunity, including:

    • IEC 61000-4-2: Electrostatic discharge immunity test
    • IEC 61000-4-3: Radiated RF electromagnetic field immunity test
    • IEC 61000-4-4: Electrical fast transient/burst immunity test
    • IEC 61000-4-5: Surge immunity test
    • IEC 61000-4-6: Immunity to conducted disturbances
    • IEC 61000-4-11: Voltage dips and interruptions immunity test
  • CISPR/TR 16-4-3 – Technical report providing statistical models and methods to evaluate EMC compliance of mass-produced products.

  • IEC 60050-161 – International Electrotechnical Vocabulary for terminology on electromagnetic compatibility.


By aligning with CISPR 14-2 Amendment 2, manufacturers and testing bodies ensure household appliances and electric tools meet evolving immunity standards - crucial for delivering reliable, safe, and compliant electrical products in diverse electromagnetic environments. This facilitates global regulatory acceptance and enhances user confidence in electrical equipment performance.
