Definitions and limitations
Warning
Choosing components
Only components complying with EMC standards should be used.
Cabling
A number of rules concerning communication cabling must be respected to ensure
optimum operation in a given environment.
Installation
Always follow the installation instructions provided by the manufacturer, without
modifying the product.
Important: Implementation of an appropriate solution right from the start always
costs less than a quick initial solution plus subsequent remedial measures.
This document defines minimum
requirements that in no way supersede
specific instructions or standards that may
be applicable to a given installation.
Although regulatory in Europe, CE
marking does not guarantee the
actual EMC performance of a
system.
Definition: EMC (ElectroMagnetic
Compatibility) is the ability of a system or
equipment to function satisfactorily in its
electromagnetic environment without
introducing intolerable electromagnetic
disturbances to anything in that
environment.
The main problem that may be encountered
if these recommendations are not
respected is an increased sensitivity to
electromagnetic phenomena.
