A.3.1 Electromagnetic compatibility
Definition of "EMC"
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the capacity of an electrical installation to function
satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without affecting that environment.
WARNING
Personal injury and damage to property may occur.
Any installation of expansion units which are not approved for TS Adapter II may violate
requirements and standards relating to safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
Only use expansion units that are approved for the system.
Pulse-shaped Interference
The table below shows the electromagnetic compatibility of the TS Adapter II in relation to
pulsed interference. This requires that the electrical installation to comply with relevant
specifications and standards.
