DEKRA Product Testing
Want to ensure the proper functioning of your electrical and electronic equipment?
IEC 61000 certification
Standard for Electronic Equipment
The IEC 61000 standard is an international standard that forms the foundation for electronic devices and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). This fundamental norm is essential to ensure the proper operation of electrical and electronic equipment. By adhering to this standard, devices can function in various environments without interference and/or loss of performance. DEKRA offers comprehensive testing capabilities related to the IEC 61000 standard. Since DEKRA conducts accredited testing, you can demonstrate worldwide compliance with this international standard by presenting a DEKRA report.
The IEC 61000 standard involves assessing and applying tests for the proper operation of electronic equipment. Components of the standard include immunity and emission requirements in different environments, measurement techniques, test procedures, and generic emission and immunity requirements.
It is inevitable that electronic devices generate some form of interference, but by meeting the specified requirements, devices remain safe to use, and there is no loss of performance. DEKRA has various sizes of
EMC labs
, allowing us to conduct IEC 61000 tests for devices of different sizes. It is even possible to test electric vehicles.
IEC 61000 Components
IEC 61000 standard consists of various components, including immunity standards, emission standards, and test techniques. The key components of the IEC 61000 norm are:
- IEC 61000-6-1: Immunity standards for residential, commercial, public, and light industrial environments.
- IEC 61000-6-2: Immunity standards for industrial environments.
- IEC 61000-6-3: Emission standards for residential, commercial, public, and light industrial environments.
- IEC 61000-6-4: Emission standards for industrial environments.
- IEC 61000-6-5: Immunity standards for power plants and substation environments.
- IEC 61000-6-6: HEMP immunity for indoor use equipment.
