Overview

Electro-Magnetic Compatibility is a key feature for large systems to ensure they can work together. It appears that testing EMC requires several costly apparatus, and specific knowledge regarding standards and level to be applied at CERN.

Mandate

SY-EPC propose a service to TE (CERN) members to test and validate their equipments.
Work includes advices, testing, help on issues.
More info in this FAQ below:
Why can't i do it myself? Does it cost me something? How much time for a final report? Queues and Priorities? When will it be operationnal? Can i access result data?

Range

Range of interest is defined below, reflecting the maximum coupling decoupling devices capability (voltage & current):
