Washington Laboratories Academy- MIL-STD-461G Test Methods and Compliance - Hands on Course

Aerospace and Military EMC: MIL-STD-461G Test Methods and Compliance: Military and Aerospace Systems must comply with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements. MIL-STD-461G was released mid-December 2015 and is applied to Department of Defense (DoD) procurements for equipment and subsystems. This revision is filled with updates for many of the previous test methods and new tests have been added.

MIL-STD-461G test and evaluation methods will be presented, including system requirements, general requirements, test article configurations, and documentation. This course offers critical information for military compliance professionals, testing industry professionals, and developers involved with electronics systems development. Instruction for each of the test methods in MIL-STD-461 test and measurement methods along with analysis of the test results will be covered.

This 4-day course provides detailed focus on performing the testing, reducing and understanding the data and managing test problems. It features practical methods to address the complexity of the standard configuration along with concepts to manage the unusual product types. The course includes student participation in laboratory activities at the facility using the available test equipment. The laboratory work will have student accomplish testing (partial test runs) on the more common test methods and uses the laboratory sessions to address questions through live experiments. The laboratory work will deal with problems that are often encountered in conforming to the standard.
