IS 6873 : Part 1 : 2010/CISPR 12 : 2007 : Limits and Methods of Measurement of Radio Disturbance Characteristics - Part 1 : Vehicles, Boats and Internal Combustion Engines

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 1) (Third Revision) which is identical with CISPR 12 : 2007 ‘Vehicles, boats and internal combustion engines - Radio disturbance characteristics - Limits and methods of measurement for the protection of off-board receivers’ issued by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on the recommendation of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Sectional Committee and approval of the Electronics and Information Technology Division Council.

This standard was first published in 1977 and subsequently revised in 1999. Now this standard has been revised to align with the latest IEC Publication. This standard describes limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics from vehicles, motorboats and spark ignited engine driven devices. The limits for electromagnetic interference were earlier covered in IS 6842 : 1997 ‘Limits for electromagnetic interference - Specification (second revision)’ which has since been withdrawn.
