Testing

Ten years ago, MIL-STD-461F added a low frequency extension to CS114 that models common mode noise generated by dc power systems used on Navy ships.

ISO 26262 requires a variety of processes and frameworks for safety management, safety concept development, requirements flow-down, and verification & validation activities.

In the beginning there was Underwriters Laboratories, and not much else.

Compliance testing can be a very expensive endeavor and also a very confusing one. And when it comes to lithium ion cells and batteries, the expense is magnified by the number of samples needed for testing.

The effectiveness of different materials for shielding can be tested using near field probes and your vector network analyzer (VNA).

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has released IEC 60749-28:2017 

Known mechanisms that couple lightning surges onto communication cables, and how these mechanisms apply for the specific case of Ethernet cabling.

This article documents the role of margin demonstration in system-level EMC testing: how and why they were first instituted, and how they have evolved over time.

It is very common for people doing simulations to make a measurement of a similar set up to validate the simulation. This is a reasonable precaution since modern simulation tools will give a very accurate answer to whatever question it is asked.

Modeling and simulation is a complex topic, usually left to experts of the EMC field as the amount of knowledge and understanding that goes into creating a model can be tremendous.
