5. Arrangement of the EUT and Test Bench

5.1 Test Bench Requirements

The test bench must be made of non-metallic materials (such as wood or plastic) to prevent metallic materials from affecting the magnetic field distribution. The recommended height of the test bench is 80 cm to 100 cm to facilitate operation and observation of the EUT’s condition. The test bench must be placed in the center of the coil to ensure that the EUT is in a uniform magnetic field environment.

5.2 EUT Placement Specifications

In accordance with the requirements of GB/T 17626.8-2006 and IEC 61000-4-8:2020, place the EUT on the test bench in its normal operating condition. The relative position between the EUT and the coil must comply with the standard specifications (typically at the centerline of the coil) to avoid distances that are too close or too far, which could affect test accuracy. The power and signal cables connected to the EUT must be arranged according to actual usage conditions to prevent additional interference.

6. Power-frequency Magnetic Field Testing

6.1 Procedura de pornire

Refer to Chapter 3 to connect all wires properly. Turn on the main unit’s power, then turn on the coil power input switch. The coil power input indicator light will illuminate, and the coil input voltage display will show the current coil input voltage.

6.2 Magnetic Field Generator Ready

6.2.1 Setările parametrilor de testare

Set the test parameters required by the standard and the EUT performance class, as well as those specified in sections 1.1 and 4.3.

6.2.2 Host Self-Adjustment

Once the parameters are set, return to the test interface. Click “Start,” and the device will perform self-calibration. The main unit will automatically adjust the excitation current, preset voltage, preset current, and other parameters based on the field strength settings you specified. The preset voltage and current are displayed in the lower-left corner of the program.

Figura 7

When the readings on the preset voltmeter and ammeter match the voltage and current values preset in the program, the main unit automatically completes the adjustment.

Note: The ammeter is a wide-range ammeter; when the actual current is low, the reading on the meter does not change significantly,

6.3 Start Testing

6.4.2 EUT Status Monitoring

Observe and record the operating status of the EUT, including: whether it functions normally (e.g., whether it shuts down, displays errors, or experiences a decline in performance); whether the display is normal (e.g., whether indicator lights or the display screen show any abnormalities); and whether the output is normal (e.g., whether signal output and action execution meet requirements). Keep detailed records of any abnormalities observed in the EUT during the test and the time they occurred.

6.5 Evaluarea rezultatelor testelor

Nivel	Criteriu de evaluare	Cazuri de utilizare tipice
A	Performance was completely normal during and after the test, in accordance with the manufacturer’s technical specifications, with no functional degradation or loss.	Precision measuring instruments, medical monitoring equipment, safety control systems
B	Performance may be temporarily reduced during testing, but no functionality is lost; performance automatically returns to normal after testing without requiring operator intervention.	Industrial controllers, UPS systems, and communications equipment
C	Functional loss is permitted during the test, but normal operation must be restored after the test through operator intervention (e.g., restarting or resetting), and the equipment must remain undamaged.	Standard office equipment, household appliances, and non-critical industrial equipment
D	Functionality cannot be restored after testing; the equipment is permanently damaged; or its performance fails to meet basic requirements.	Determined to be non-compliant; design corrections required

7. Proceduri post-test

7.1 Încheierea testului

If the EUT is visibly damaged during the test, immediately tap “Stop Test” on the touchscreen. If no abnormalities occur during the test, wait for the test to end automatically.

7.2 Curățenie și organizare post-test

Turn off the input power supply on the coil, then turn off the power to the main unit.

Clean the test area and wipe it down with a dry cloth; do not use alcohol or corrosive cleaning agents.

Power-frequency magnetic field testing is a destructive test; it does not automatically generate a test report. You can create your own test report based on the recorded data and the test procedure.

7.3 Depozitarea echipamentelor

7.3.1 Cerințe privind depozitarea pe termen scurt

Dacă echipamentul este utilizat pentru operațiuni de rutină, nu este necesară nicio altă acțiune după finalizarea curățării în urma fiecărui test.

7.3.2 Cerințe pentru depozitarea pe termen lung

Dacă dispozitivul nu va fi utilizat pentru o perioadă lungă de timp (mai mult de o lună), deconectați toate cablurile și acoperiți dispozitivul cu o husă de praf pentru a preveni acumularea de praf.

The device should be powered on once a month for half an hour to prevent the aging of electrical components (such as capacitors and contactors).

8. Depanarea și rezolvarea problemelor comune

8.1 Dispozitivul nu pornește

Simptome de eroare	Cauze posibile	Metode de depanare
After turning on the power switch, the device does not respond (the indicator light does not come on, and the fan does not spin).	The power cord is not properly connected or is damaged; the supply voltage is abnormal; a fuse has blown; the MOV (varistor) has failed.	Ensure that the power cord is in good condition and securely connected. Power supply issues—such as unstable voltage, excessive voltage, or harmonic interference—can cause the fuse or varistor to burn out. We recommend using a regulated, clean sine-wave AC power supply to power the equipment. If necessary, replace the fuse or varistor with one of the same type.

The figure below shows the location of the fuse:

8.2 Circuit Breaker Tripping During Testing

Simptome de eroare	Cauze posibile	Metode de depanare
After turning on the input power supply for the coil, the circuit breaker tripped in the laboratory.	The current rating of the laboratory ground-fault circuit interrupter is too low; the maximum inrush current when the coil starts up can reach 25 A to 32 A.	Upgrade the laboratory ground-fault circuit interrupter to at least 32A
