EMC can be Simplified if you treat it like a Program
• EMC does not begin and end with qualification testing – Think of planting a seed in a garden
• It takes an EMC program - Understand EMC - Know the Requirements - System Design - Construction and Wiring - Qualification Planning and Testing - System Installation - Future Maintenance and Troubleshooting

EMC is comprised of two parts
• Emissions – How much electromagnetic energy a device generates
• Immunity – How much electromagnetic energy a device can withstand

Surge Suppressors (MOVs)
Power Line Filter
• MOVs are downstream of power line filter
• MOVs are in the middle of the cabinet
• Input and output of MOVs and filters are routed together
• MOVs and Filter have long leads to Ground
• There is no separation of power and signal cabling

Follow EMC Best Practices
• Power Line Filters – At the cabinet boundary
• Maintain Twisted – With GND Wire for Power
• Power and Signal Cable Separation – Cross at 90º – Separate Cabinet Entry
• Shield Bonding – Short Leads – EMI Reference
• Ground – Follow Safety Codes – Follow EMI Practices
• Do not tie-wrap cables

Slide 17 of 25
Have a Plan for Qualification Testing
• Cable Type – Impacts emissions and immunity – Shielding can significantly change results
• Cable Length – Standards have specific requirements – Affects effective antenna length
• Equipment Grounding – Impacts noise return path – Dictates shielding performance
• Mode(s) of Operation of the EUT – Steady-state mode of operation – Response time of system

Slide 18 of 25
DO NOT FORGET ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA – Its not contained in the EMC guidance documents
• How much can the Analog I/O deviate? – 4-20mA signal – 0.02%, 2%, 20%
• Can the Digital I/O change state? • How much deviation or ripple on
output of a power supply? • Different acceptance criteria for
different EMC tests? – Surge/EFT vs. other tests

Options for Addressing EMC failures
• Live with it
• Modify the system
• Buy something else
• Pencil-whip it
• Perform EMI/RFI site survey – Existing System/Location
– During Installation
– Post Installation

EMC Testing is usually put off until the very end
• EMC Testing performed during FAT testing
• System failed CE102 and RE102 emissions testing
• No time to implement and test EMC recommendations
![Page 22: EMC Basics](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051623/563db91e550346aa9a9a33ae/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

On-site testing showed impact of EMC recommendations and plant installation
• Testing was performed with the system de-energized, energized, and operating – Spent Fuel Pool
– Reactor Building
• “As left” CE102 and RE102 test results would not significantly increase the level of emissions at the point of installation

Plant installation is critical for EMC
• Evaluate configuration differences
• Incorporate qualification testing modifications
• Apply EMC best practices • Assess impact of existing
plant wiring on system performance

EMC Concerns can be Managed Without Significantly Impacting Schedules, Costs, and Sanity
• Attention to detail during the design phase
• Select the appropriate tests and levels for EMC Qualification testing
• Equipment failures can be managed through mitigation and/or justification
• Understand what to look for during installation and troubleshooting
• EMC is not Rocket Science
