- Scope
- This part of IEC 61000 establishes a methodology for the achievement of functional safety
only with regard to electromagnetic phenomena of electrical and electronic systems and
installations, as installed and used under operational conditions. This methodology includes
the implication it has on equipment used in such systems and installations.
This technical specification:
a) applies to safety-related systems incorporating electrical/electronic/programmable
electronic equipment;
b) considers the influence of the electromagnetic environment on safety-related systems;
it is intended for designers, manufacturers and installers of safety-related systems and
can be used as a guide by IEC committees;
c) is not concerned with direct hazards from electromagnetic fields on living beings nor is
it concerned with safety related to breakdown of insulation or other mechanisms by
which persons can be exposed to electrical hazards.
It mainly covers EMC related aspects of the design phase of safety-related systems and
equipment used therein, and deals in particular with
- some basic concepts in the area of functional safety,
- the various EMC specific steps for the achievement and management of functional safety,
- the description and assessment of the electromagnetic environment,
- the EMC aspects of the design and integration process taking into account the process of
EMC safety planning on system as well as on equipment level,
- the validation and verification processes regarding the immunity against electromagnetic
disturbances,
- the performance criterion and some test philosophy considerations for safety-related
systems and the equipment used therein,
- aspects related to testing of the immunity of safety-related systems and equipment used
therein against electromagnetic disturbances.
This Technical Specification is applicable to safety-related systems intended to comply with
the requirements of IEC 61508 and/or associated sector-specific functional safety standards.
For safety-related systems covered by other functional safety standards, a consideration shall
be made of the requirements of this Technical Specification in order to identify the appropriate
measures that shall be taken with relation to EMC and functional safety.
This Technical Specification may also be used as a guide for considering EMC requirements
for other systems having a direct contribution to safety.
