IS 6873 : Part 2 : Sec 2 : 2024/CISPR 14-2 : 2020 Limits and Methods of Measurement of Radio Disturbance Characteristics - Part 2 Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) - Requirements for Household Appliances, Electric Tools and Similar Apparatus - Section 2 Immunity - Product Family Standard
NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Part 2/Sec 2) (Fifth Revision) which is identical to CISPR 14-2 : 2020 'Electromagnetic compatibility - Requirements for household appliances, electric tools and similar apparatus - Part 2: Immunity - Product family standard' 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 was largely based on CISPR 14. It was subsequently revised in 1999, 2009, 2015 and 2019. First revision was based on CISPR 14 : 1993. Second revision of this standard was identical to CISPR 14-2 : 2007. Third revision of this standard was identical to CISPR14-2 : 2008. Forth revision of this was identical to CISPR14-2 : 2015. This fifth revision has been undertaken to align it with the latest version of CISPR 14-2 : 2020.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Extension of the frequency range for radiated immunity above 1 GHz;
b) An advanced categorisation of equipment;
c) Revision of general test conditions and addition of new specific test conditions (for example, for robotic equipment);
d) Clarification of requirements applicable to equipment incorporating radio functions;
e) Addition of requirements for wired network ports;
f) Revision of definitions and addition of new ones;
g) Delete requirements referring to statistical evaluation; and
h) Alignment with CISPR 14-1, where applicable.
The text of the IEC standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain terminologies and conventions are, however, not identical to those used in the Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker, while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
