CISPR Scope

Standardization in the field of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) including

Liaison with IEC Technical Committees that maintain basic standards that apply the prescriptions of methods of measurement of such immunity. Test levels for such immunity tests will be set by CISPR in relevant product standards.

The consideration jointly with other IEC and ISO committees of the emission and immunity requirements for devices and products where their standards cover EMC requirements which do not match to the respective requirements in CISPR standards.

Taking into account the impact of safety issues on disturbance suppression and immunity of electrical equipment.

CISPR Smart Grid Guide

Applies to Equipment (products): Focus on customer domain intended to be

connected to the Smart Grid, e.g. Grid Connected Power Converters

Designed to be part of the Smart Grid functionality or control (for example: Smart meters or ancillary equipment intended for installation in the customer premise)

Used for local electricity generation and storage in the customer domain

18


Identifies Existing standards from CISPR and other IEC

committees that apply to products whether or not they are connected to the Smart Grid, yet are still applicable to Smart Grid application

Areas where more studies are needed in order to ensure that new combination of products and their applications are adequately covered.

Frequency bands of especial interest for Smart Grid operation and the measurement method to assess EMC

Topics needing further study

Certain frequency ranges are not covered in the majority of the CISPR standards (where this band is used for equipment to communicate with the Smart Grid) For example the Smart Grid uses frequencies below 150

kHz where CISPR has requirements only for:

Induction cooking equipment (CISPR 14-1)

Lighting equipment (CISPR 15)

Installations where the distance between fixed Smart Grid equipment is very short. Measuring facilities and techniques will need to be fully defined to determine adequate EMC including interactions among these equipments

CISPR Major Collaborations

26

CISPR JTF Activities

Joint task force work with TC77 CIS/A-SC77B

TEM measurements (IEC 61000-4-20 ed2.)considering large EUTs (those that have cables attached) and other contributions

Reverberation chamber measurements (IEC 61000-4-21 ed2.0)-- working on Edition 3; assignments made to subgroups within JTF

Basic measurement uncertainty published as IEC/TR 61000-1-6 ed1.0 (TF disbanded); may have more to do in 2015.

27

CISPR Work in ACEC

CISPR has 4 members in the IEC Advisory Committee on EMC (ACEC)

http://www.iec.ch/dyn/www/f?p=103:41:0::::FSP_ORG_ID,FSP_LANG_ID:3236,25

Keeps ACEC informed of its activity and how it might be used by other IEC technical committees that have EMC in their publications

Helps support IEC/ISO Guide 107 (Electromagnetic compatibility - Guide to the drafting of electromagnetic compatibility publications) along with TC77 (EMC)https://webstore.iec.ch/publication/7518

Serves as resource in alerting Technical Committees that the emissions from the devices they write standards for must not interfere with radio services

Be responsive to ACEC needs and activity which impact emission control brought up by other ACEC members and TCs that bring these issues to ACEC

He is a life Fellow of the IEEE and an honored life member of the IEEE EMC Society and member of its Board of Directors, chair of its technical committees on EMC measurements and Smart Grid, Vice President for Standards, past EMCS president, and past chair of its standards development committee. He is also past president of the IEEE Standards Association (SA), past member of the SA Board of Governors and past member of the IEEE’s Board of Directors and Executive Committee. He is past Associate Director for Wireless EMC at the University of Oklahoma Center for the Study of Wireless EMC. He now teaches the practical application of EMC compliance measurements at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana. Currently he is a voting member of the US Smart Grid Interoperability Panel and its Testing and Certification Committee. In addition he is a technical leader on the NIST Electromagnetic Interoperability Issues Working Group which is providing EMC recommendations for Smart Grid equipment and systems. He serves as the consultant on Smart Grid matters for the Conformity Assessment Section of the American Council of Independent Laboratories.
