scope:

This International Standard establishes requirements for electromagnetic compatibility testing of instrumentation and control equipment supplied for use in systems important to safety at nuclear power plants. The standard lists the applicable IEC standards (principally the IEC 61000 series) which define the general test methods, and provides the necessary application-specific parameters and criteria to ensure that nuclear safety requirements are met.

The normative part of this standard is limited to the testing of equipment prior to installation in a nuclear power plant to demonstrate immunity to electromagnetic disturbances. This document includes informative annexes which provide additional guidance and describes approaches to maintaining electromagnetic compatibility for installed equipment.
