AMENDMENT 2
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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 2 to CISPR 16-2-3:2016 has been prepared by CISPR subcommittee A: Radio-
interference measurements and statistical methods.

Add, after the existing term 3.1.35, added by CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019, the following new
term and definition:
3.1.36
feed point of a shielded loop antenna
location of the slit in the shielding of a loop antenna
Note 1 to entry: The feed point of a shielded loop antenna is important for a correct set-up. The location of the feed
point has an influence on the site insertion loss between two magnetic field antennas [24], [25].

7.1.1 General remarks and overview of test methods
Replace the existing third paragraph of this subclause, added by
CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019, by the following new third paragraph:
The magnetic field strength component of a disturbance is typically measured at frequencies
up to 30 MHz. Generally, in magnetic field strength measurements, the horizontal and vertical
components of the field at the position of the receiving antenna are measured when using the
distant single antenna procedure. If an LLAS is used, the three orthogonal magnetic dipole
moments of the EUT are measured.
Delete the existing NOTE 2 of this subclause, added by CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019.
7.1.2.1 Frequency range 9 kHz to 30 MHz
Delete the existing NOTE from under b), added by CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019.
7.3.1 Measurand
Replace, in the ninth paragraph of this subclause, the existing reference to Equation (35) of
CISPR 16-1-4:2010/AMD1:2012, modified by CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019, with a reference
to Equation (13) of CISPR 16-1-4:2019.
7.7.2.1 Measurement method
Replace, in the second paragraph of this subclause, the existing reference to 4.3.2 of
CISPR 16-1-4:2010, modified by CISPR 16-2-3:2016/AMD1:2019, with a reference to 4.3.2 of

Add, after the existing subclause 7.10, the following new subclause:
7.11 Open-area test site or semi-anechoic chamber measurements (9 kHz to 30 MHz)
7.11.1 Measurand
The quantity to be measured is the maximum magnetic field strength emitted by the EUT, at
each of the three orthogonal directions X, Y and Z as shown in Figure 25 and Figure 26 (see
7.11.3), with the reference point of the receive antenna set at 1,3 m above the ground plane, at
the horizontal measurement distance from the EUT as specified in the applicable product
standard, over all angles in
