Electrical equipment and systems can be sensitive to signals from
other equipment, which causes electro magnetic disturbance. In
the European Union, countries agreed upon laws for the immunity
(sensitivity) of signals of other equipment as well as equipment
emission (disturbance). When equipment or applications in a certain
surrounding comply with the valid standards, they will not disturb
each other's operations (they are called "Electro Magnetic
Compatible").
For residential surroundings, where the home automation system
XanuraHome is being applied, the European standard for immunity
is standardised in EN 61000-6-1. Equipment that complies with this
standard is resistant to electro magnetic emission of other equip-
ment, which complies with the European standard EN 61000-6-3
for residential surroundings. Experience has shown that in domestic
surroundings, equipment is being used which has an EMC-emission
level that is above the levels stated in EN 61000-6-3. This equip-
ment can disturb the correct functioning of the XanuraHome-
modules. The immunity of the XanuraHome built-in modules is
therefore revaluated and equivalent to EN 61000-6-2 (the more
severe European standard for immunity in industrial surroundings).
Nevertheless, the application area for XanuraHome will
remain restricted to residential areas.
