7.1.5  Classification of EMC performance 
Three General classes of EMC performance are available as detailed below: 
Class 1: General Industrial 
Compliance with the EMC Product Standard for Power Drive Systems EN 68100-3 
for use in 
Second Environment (Industrial) and Restricted Distribution.

EMC Phenomenon  Standard  Level 
Emissions:   
Radiated Emissions  EN 55011  Level A1 
Conducted Emissions  EN 68100-3  Limits under consideration 
 
 
Immunity:   
Electrostatic Discharge  EN 61000-4-2  8 kV air discharge 
Burst Interference  EN 61000-4-4  2 kV power cables, 1 kV control 
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Field IEC 1000-4-3  26-1000 MHz, 10 V/m 
Class 2: Filtered Industrial 
This level of performance will allow the manufacturer/assembler to self-certify their 
apparatus for compliance with the EMC directive for the industrial environment as 
regards the EMC performance characteristics of the power drive system. 
Performance limits are as specified in the Generic Industrial Emissions and 
Immunity standards EN 50081-2 and EN 50082-2.
