1.2 1.2 Electromagnetic Compatibility
Definition
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of an electrical installation to function
satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without interfering with that environment.
The S7-300 modules also satisfy requirements of EMC legislation for the European domestic
market. Compliance of the S7-300 system with specifications and directives on electric
design is prerequisite.
Pulseshaped disturbance
The table below shows the EMC compatibility of S7 modules in areas subject to pulse-
shaped disturbance.
Pulse-shaped disturbance Test voltage corresponds with degree
of severity
Electrostatic discharge
to IEC 61000-4-2
Air discharge: ± 8 kV
Contact discharge ± 4 kV

Burst pulses (high-speed
transient disturbance)
to IEC 61000-4-4.

2 kV (power supply lines)
DC with protective elements
2 kV (signal/ data line only > 3 m),
with protective elements as required
• symmetric coupling
1 kV (power supply lines) DC with
protective elements
1 kV (signal/ data line only > 3 m),
with protective elements as required

Additional measures
When connecting an S7-300 system to the public network, always ensure compliance with
Limit Value Class B to EN 55022.
