Test set up DIPS, Interruption
Ports which must be tested:
AC / DC power supply
Coupling path:
These disturbances appear on the power lines. Disturbance sources are short circuits between power lines,
power line switching actions and heavy load changes etc.

Test set-up:
• During DIPS test remember that high inrush currents are possible during the turn on phase of the DIPS.
• With switched power supplies the current can increase linearly with the voltage reduction e.g. I= 1A at U
230V, and with reduced voltage of U = 40%, the current increases to 2,5 A.
• For a realistic DIPS and interruption test, the test object must be discharged using the power line
impedance, see Chapter 3.4.
