(Amendment)Vehicles, boats and internal combustion engines - Radio disturbance characteristics - Limits and methods of measurement for the protection of off-board receivers
Vehicles, boats and internal combustion engines - Radio disturbance characteristics - Limits and methods of measurement for the protection of off-board receivers
The limits in this International Standard are designed to provide protection for broadcast receivers in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 000 MHz when used in the residential environment. Compliance with this standard may not provide adequate protection for new types of radio transmissions or receivers used in the residential environment nearer than 10 m to the vehicle, boat or device. This standard applies to the emission of electromagnetic energy which may cause interference to radio reception and which is emitted from a) vehicles propelled by an internal combustion engine, electrical means or both (see 3.1); b) boats propelled by an internal combustion engine, electrical means or both (see 3.2). Boats are to be tested in the same manner as vehicles except where they have unique characteristics as explicitly stated in this standard; c) devices equipped with internal combustion engines (see 3.3). See Annex G for a flow chart to help determine the applicability of CISPR 12. This standard does not apply to aircraft, traction systems (railway, tramway and electric trolley bus), or to incomplete vehicles. In the case of a dual-mode trolley bus (e.g. propelled by power from either a.c./d.c. mains or an internal combustion engine), the internal combustion propulsion system must be included, but the a.c./d.c. mains portion of the vehicle propulsion system is excluded from this standard. NOTE 2 Protection of receivers used on board the same vehicle as the disturbance source(s) are covered by CISPR 25. The measurement of electromagnetic disturbances while the vehicle is connected to power mains for charging is not covered in this standard. The user is referred to appropriate IEC and CISPR standards which define measurement techniques and limits for this condition. Annex H lists work being considered for future revisions.

Mejne vrednosti v tem mednarodnem standardu so zasnovane za zagotavljanje zaščite sprejemnikov radiodifuzije v frekvenčnem razponu od 30 MHz do 1000 MHz pri uporabi v bivalnih okoljih. Skladnost s tem standardom morda ne bo zagotovila primerne zaščite za nove tipe radijskega oddajanja in sprejemanja, ki se uporabljajo v bivalnih okoljih, ki so bližje vozilu, plovilu ali napravi od 10 m. Ta standard velja za oddajanje elektromagnetne energije, ki lahko povzroči interferenco pri radijskem sprejemu in ki se oddaja iz a) vozil, ki jih poganjajo motorji z notranjim izgorevanjem, električna sredstva ali oboje (glej točko 3.1.); plovila, ki jih poganjajo motorji z notranjim izgorevanjem, električna sredstva ali oboje (glej točko 3.2). Plovila je potrebno preskusiti na isti način kot vozila, razen kadar imajo edinstvene značilnosti, kot je izrecno navedeno v tem standardu; c) naprave, opremljene z motorjem z notranjim izgorevanjem (glej točko 3.3). Glej Dodatek G za shematski prikaz, ki pomaga pri ugotavljanju uporabnosti CISPR 12. Ta standard ne velja za zračna plovila, sisteme vleke (železnica, tramvaj in električni trolejbus) ali za nepopolna vozila. V primeru trolejbusa z dvema načinoma delovanja (npr. ki ga poganja energija bodisi iz izmenične ali enosmerne napeljave ali motor z notranjim izgorevanjem), mora biti vključen sistem notranjega izgorevanja za pogon, vendar je del pogonskega sistema vozila, ki ga predstavljajo izmenične ali enosmerne napeljave, izključen iz tega standarda. OPOMBA 2: Zaščita sprejemnikov, uporabljena v istem vozilu kot vir motenj, je zajeta v CISPR 25. Merjenje elektromagnetnih motenj, medtem ko je vozilo povezano z električnimi napeljavami za napajanje, ni zajeto v tem standardu. Uporabnik naj upošteva primerne IEC in CISPR standarde, ki opredeljujejo tehnike merjenja in omejitve tega pogoja. Dodatek H navaja delo, ki se bo upoštevalo v prihodnjih revizijah.

Overview
EN 55012:2007/A1:2009 (CISPR 12:2007/A1:2009) is a CENELEC amendment that updates the European standard for radio disturbance characteristics of vehicles, boats and internal combustion engine–driven devices. Its purpose is to define limits and measurement methods to ensure protection of off‑board receivers from electromagnetic emissions generated by mobile and portable machines and vehicles.
This amendment clarifies scope and terminology, updates definitions (for example vehicle, device and traction batteries) and revises guidance such as the flowchart in Annex G that determines applicability. The standard applies to on‑road and off‑road vehicles, boats and a wide range of machines driven by internal combustion engines, while explicitly excluding certain categories (see Key Topics).
Key Topics
- Scope and applicability: Covers vehicles, boats and devices powered by internal combustion engines or traction batteries intended to operate on land or water. Examples include cars, trucks, buses, mopeds, agricultural and earth‑moving machinery, chainsaws, pumps and landscaping equipment.
- Exclusions: Does not apply to aircraft, household appliances, traction systems (railway, tramway and electric trolley bus) or incomplete vehicles. For dual‑mode trolley buses, the internal combustion propulsion system is included but the a.c./d.c. mains portion is excluded.
- Definitions: Updated definitions for vehicle (machines intended to carry persons or goods), device (machines driven by internal combustion engines not primarily intended to carry persons/goods) and traction batteries (high‑power batteries for traction applications).
- Measurement methods: Specifies standardised test procedures and measurement arrangements to assess radio disturbance emissions so that off‑board receivers are protected. (The amendment updates or clarifies procedural elements; it does not introduce numerical emission limits beyond the scope of the base publication.)
- Administrative details: Amendment A1 was approved by CENELEC on 2009‑07‑01 with national implementation dates specified for members.
Applications
EN 55012:2007/A1:2009 is used by:
- Manufacturers for EMC design and product development of vehicles, boats and engine‑driven equipment
- Test laboratories and compliance engineers executing standardised radio‑disturbance measurements
- Regulatory and certification bodies assessing type approval and market access in CENELEC member countries
- Product managers and procurement teams ensuring equipment will not interfere with external radio receivers
Benefits include consistent test methods, clearer scope for different machine categories and harmonised national adoption across European electrotechnical committees.
Related Standards
- CISPR 12 (base publication) - EN 55012:2007
- CISPR technical documents addressing mains‑connected equipment and automatic battery‑powered cleaners (see notes in Annex G)
- CENELEC/IEC EMC and automotive test standards used alongside EN 55012 for broader compliance strategies
Keywords: EN 55012, CISPR 12, radio disturbance, vehicles, boats, internal combustion engines, off‑board receivers, EMC testing, limits and measurement methods.
