This publication stipulates performance requirements for radio interference measuring apparatus, including the associated artificial mains network.
The requirements of this publication shall be complied with at all frequencies and for all levels of radio-interference voltages, currents, power or field strengths within the range of the measuring apparatus.
The publication is divided into sections, as follows:
Section One: Measuring apparatus.
Section Two: Conduction measurements of radio
interference. Section Three: Radiation measurements of radio interference.
Section Four: Method of measurement of various types of interference-producing devices and systems.
Section Five: Radio interference measuring apparatus having detectors other than quasi-peak.
Section Six: Audio-frequency interference measurements.
Section Seven: Measurement of disturbances due to switching operations.
Section Eight: Measurement of the shielding efficiency of coaxial cables having one or two braids
in the metric wavelength range. Section Nine: Statistical considerations in the determination of limits of radio interference.
Section Ten: Measurement of total radiated power from apparatus in the microwave range (reverberating chamber method).
The appendices to this publication give additional information on the fundamental characteristics on which the requirements are based, information of general interest on propagation of interference from industrial equipment and the reproduction of the parts of C.I.S.P.R. Publication 1 about interference from power lines.
Sections Two and Three lay down only general requirements for the measurement of conduction and radiation characteristics of radio interference. Section Four lays down only general require-ments applicable to the measurement of interference produced by various types of interference-producing devices and systems. Detailed requirements for the measurement of radio interference produced by specific types of devices are stipulated in other C.I.S.P.R. publications, as follows:
