1 Description
1.1 The interference sources of the transients
1.1.1 Electrostatic discharge ESD
Electro Static Discharge IEC 61000-4-2 Ed.2
What causes electrostatic discharges?
A person becomes electrostatically charged by walking over an insulating floor surface. The capacity of the
body can be charged to several kilovolts (1000 V). This capacity is discharged when contact is made with
an electronic unit or system. The discharge is visible as a spark in many cases and can be felt by person
concerned, who gets a „shock“. The discharges are harmless to humans, but not to sensitive, modern
electronic equipment. The resulting current causes interference in the units or can make entire systems
„crash“.
For over 25 years it has been known to the electrical industry that electrostatic discharges as encountered
every day can have a disastrous effect on electronic equipment.
The cost of damage caused by ESD is difficult to assess, but amounts to billions of dollars worldwide.
The areas most affected are:
• manufacturing of integrated circuits (chips).
• the chemical industry, e.g. by explosion, fires caused by the sparks from electrostatic discharges.
• malfunctioning of process control with the secondary damage costs.
1.1.2 Switched inductance EFT (Burst)
Electric Fast Transient or Burst. IEC 61000-4-4 Ed.2
Industrial measurement and control equipment practically always operates in conjunction with conventional
control units (relays, contactors). Fluorescent lamp ballast units, insufficiently suppressed coffee grinders,
vacuum cleaners, drilling machines, hair dryers, universal motors, etc. can be found everywhere in the
power supply system. All these, primarily inductive loads, produce interference when switched on and off. A
wide range of switching transients, also called bursts, are produced with the following waveform.
E-TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C_E-Manual 9/162
TRANSIENT3000
Figure: 1.0.1.2
The parameters which define the
burst are:
- Rise time of the spike Ts in ns
- Repetition frequency f4 in the range of kHz up to MHz
- Energy, some mJ
- Voltage amplitude UBmax. up to some kV
- Duration of a burst several milliseconds
The different EFT sources generate different burst waveforms. A typical burst waveform is shown in the
figure above.
The impedance of the EFT source is generally high, therefore the capacitance of connected cables
influences the rise time.
1.1.3 Indirect lightning SURGE
SURGE are transients with a high energy, relatively low frequency content up to some
.
kV
IEC 61000-4-5 Ed.2
Lightning is a daily event and occurs about 8 million times in approximately 44,000 storm centres
throughout the world. That is in the order of 100 discharges per second. Measuring and recording
equipment in aircraft registers one lightning strike for every 1,000 flying hours.
Product assembly and finishing in many industries depends on modern electronics. The most frequent
cause of damage is overvoltage, caused either by switching action in the equipment itself or by
atmospheric discharges such as lightning. In order that the overvoltages do not destroy the electronic
equipment, protection elements and circuits are placed at the inputs and outputs of electronic equipment.
Consumer electronic devices, such as antenna ports on television sets, telephones, faxes, can also be
influenced by atmospheric discharges. The disturbances are mostly tolerable because of their relatively low
occurrence. To protect such equipment from damage protection elements and circuits are installed. Tests
must be carried out to determine whether these protective circuits are really effective.
Beside lightning, switching action can also generate high energy impulses.
10/162
TRANSIENT3000
1.1.4 Voltage interruptions, Dips
DIPS means a sudden reduction of the voltage at a point in the electrical system,
followed by voltage recovery after a short period of time from a few cycles to a few
seconds.
IEC 61000-4-11 Ed.2
Voltage failures occur following switching operations, short-circuits, fuses blowing and when running up
heavy loads. These are man-made faults, produced unintentionally, and include operation of domestic
appliances, electronically controlled machine tools, switching operations in the public lighting system,
economy lamps, etc.
The quality of the electrical power supply is increasingly becoming a central topic of discussion.
Interference sources in the mains, caused by electronic power control using non-linear components such
as thyristors are increasing. These devices are used in domestic appliances, such as hotplates, heating
units, washing machines, television sets, economy lamps, PCs and industrial systems with speedcontrolled drives. Simultaneously an increase in electronic systems sensitive to interference is apparent in
all sectors of the electrical power system.
In order to achieve electromagnetic compatibility, both the interaction of the electrical equipment connected
to the supply and its noise immunity must be determined.
The electromagnetic compatibility of electronic equipment must be guaranteed e. g. Europe Union 31.

TRANSIENT3000
1.1.6 Common mode disturbances in the frequency range 0 Hz to 150 kHz
IEC 61000-4-16 Ed.1 Amd.2
The conducted, common mode disturbances at mains frequency and its harmonics may be generated by
faults on the mains power distribution system and leakage currents flowing into the earth system. The d.c.
power supply network used in industrial, electrical plants and telecommunication centres may also
generate d.c. common mode disturbances, particularly when either the positive or negative terminal is
connected to earth.
Electrified railways will also generate disturbances at their frequency of operation (typically 16
2/3 Hz).
The induced disturbances are described in detail in IEC 61000-2-3 and IEC 61000-2-5. The different types
of disturbances may be present simultaneously but at different levels.
Furthermore, if the power system develops a fault, the disturbance levels may be up to 10 times the
reference levels given for normal operating conditions, however the fault condition disturbances are
typically present for short durations only (up to about 1 s).
The disturbances at mains frequency and harmonics may affect signal ports of equipment where
insufficient common mode rejection is available. Disturbances up to 1-2 kHz are mainly due to the
harmonics of the power mains.
At higher frequencies the disturbances are mostly related to power electronic equipment, which may
produce switching currents involving the ground system, giving rise to conducted, common mode
disturbances.

1.2 Overview of the TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C test system
1.2.1 TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C and its versions
The tester TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C simulates transients of different interference sources. Such as: indirect
lightning in electronic systems, human body electrostatic discharges, switched inductance (Burst), power
supply interruptions and variations and common mode disturbance.
The test system TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C with accessories fulfils all requirements of the IEC basic standards
IEC 61000-4-2 Ed.2 (ESD); 61000-4-4 Ed.2 (EFT); 61000-4-5 Ed.2 (SURGE) without 10/700 µs impulse;
61000-4-11 Ed.2 (Interruption and Variations), and with accessories 61000-4-8 Ed.2 (Magnetic field
50/60Hz) and 61000-4-9 Ed.1 (Magnetic field SURGE), Common mode disturbance IEC 61000-4-16 Ed.1
Amd.2, 61000-4-29 Ed.1 dips and interruption on d.c. and IEC 61000-4-34, DIPS and Interruption >16A
per phase.
If not all transient test are needed, the TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C tester is also available in various versions, with
the possibility to upgrade the tester later to a full TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C test system.
The upgrade can be made by a customer. Mounting instruction (IS) will be delivered with
the relevant module.
The following EXT-TRA units are available:
EXT-TRA3000 E (ESD)
EXT-TRA3000 F (Electrical Fast Transient, Burst)
Installing instruction of EXTTRA3000 E can be found in the
Instruction Sheet (IS), delivered
with the EXT-TRA3000 E.
Installing instruction of EXTTRA3000 F can be found in the
Instruction Sheet (IS), delivered
with the EXT-TRA3000 F.

EXT-TRA3000 C (Common Mode Disturbance)
Installing instruction of EXTTRA3000 C can be found in the
Instruction Sheet (IS), delivered
with the EXT-TRA3000 C.
Each EXT-TRA3000 is delivered with a calibration report.
The TRA3000 F-S-D-V contains a single-phase coupling / de-coupling network, which allows a controlled
superposition of the transients onto a power supply line.
All transients are generated at the same EUT power output, therefore a true single port test is possible. The
TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C allows the automated switching of coupling paths and the programming of a large
range of test sequences.
The tester TRA3000 F-S-D-V-C is a stand-alone equipment for automated EMC test without a PC.

1.3.10 Power line limits on EUT power input of TRA3000
Power line voltages greater than 280V and frequencies higher than 70Hz are the limit for the power
dissipation of the SURGE circuit. The TRA3000 measures the voltage and the frequency. When higher
voltages or frequencies are measured the following modes will be activated:
Gating Mode Gating Time Gating activated
0 No Gating F < 70Hz & V < 280Vrms
1 0.5 Seconds F < 70Hz & V >= 280Vrms
2 0.1 Seconds F >= 70Hz
Explanation of the gating mode:
The coupling path between the SURGE circuit and the power line will be opened and only closed during
Surge release.
Possible states during “RUN” modes:
0 Æ 1 0 Æ 2 1 Æ 2
1.3.11 Synchronisation of TRA3000 to mains frequencies Synchronisation to EUT power input
A minimum voltage of 30V rms must be applied to the power input on the rear of the TRA3000 (PWR1 or
PWR2) to synchronize the Surge to the mains. The LED within the connector on the front panel indicates a
proper synchronisation.
26/162
TRANSIENT3000
Synchronisation to Impulse Out
Generally we recommend the synchronisation to the TRA3000 (PWR1 or PWR2). The voltage at the PWR
inputs is limited to 280Vrms.
That the synchronisation via the Impulse Output (Synchro on Output) works correct, the following condition
must be fulfilled:
If frequency <= 100Hz, than the voltage must be > 100Vrms
or
If frequency > 100Hz, than the voltage must be > 150Vrms
Caution
When PWR1 is turned OFF also the synchronisation signal is turned OFF. TRA3000 displays the following
message.
