Electromagnetic Compatibility
We provide expertise in all aspects for EMC Management and Testing. We also assist clients in identifying the tests that must be carried out in order to verify EMC performance. This points out where, if any, performance flaws exist and forms the basis for further control measures or design modifications. Most electrical products are required to comply with the current European EMC Directive 2004/108/EC. In a complex railway EMC environment, demonstrating the importance of managing EMC from project conception to completion is crucial. We assist our client in managing EMC activities based on standards and best practices that are widely adopted in the railway industry, such as EN50121 series, etc.
