9.3 IEC 61000-4-13 Option
9.3.1 General
The IEC413 option is capable of performing IEC 61000-4 section 13 Harmonics and inter
harmonics low frequency immunity tests. The tests are based on IEC 61000-4-13:2002-03, First
Edition. It is assumed that the user has a copy of the test standard available. This manual
section only cover operation of the
–413 option from the front-panel of the iX Series power
source.
Note 1: The initial release of the
–413 option for the iX Series power sources was based on a
draft version (CDV) of the IEC 61000-4-13 standard. Minor changes were made between the
CDV draft and the final released version. Units with firmware revision 2.37 or higher conform to
the official released IEC standard. Units with older firmware conform to the draft version. A
firmware upgrade can be ordered through California Instruments‟ service department by
contacting
support@calinst.com and requesting part number CIC463. Provide the model and
serial number of the unit (master unit in multi-box systems) to ensure the correct firmware is
provided. The firmware revision is displayed on the LCD screen immediately after power up for a
few seconds. It can also be queried over the bus using the “*IDN?” command.
Where relevant, the requirement for the correct firmware revision to obtain specific test modes is
indicated in this manual.
Note 2: The
–413 option is only available on iX Series AC power sources, not i Series. It is
possible to upgrade most i Series AC source to an iX Series and add the
–413 option. Contact
the California Instruments service department for information. support@calinst.com
9.3.2 Initial Setup
The user must set the operating voltage and close the output relay prior to the start of test. The
following set of parameters must be set before the start of test.
1. Frequency to 50 or 60 Hz.
2. Voltage mode to AC.
3. Waveform to sine wave.
9.3.3 Tests Performed
The IEC61000-4-13 test consists of several types of tests. These tests can be run individually or
in sequence (ALL). The following tests are available:
1. Harmonic combination test flat curve and over swing.
2. Sweep in frequency and resonance frequency detection.
3. Individual harmonics and inter harmonics.
4. Meister curve test (Firmware revision 2.37 or higher required)
