Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the ability of electrical equipment and systems to function acceptably in their electromagnetic environment, by limiting the unintentional generation, propagation and reception of electromagnetic energy which may cause unwanted effects such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) or even physical damage to ...
CISPR is the acronym of Comité International Spécial des Perturbations Radio, [1] or the International Special Committee for Radio Protection of IEC. CISPR Standards aim to the protection of radio reception in the range 9 kHz to 400 GHz from interference caused by operation of electrical or electronic appliances and systems in the electromagnetic environment.
MIL-STD-461 [1] is a United States Military Standard that describes how to test equipment for electromagnetic compatibility.. The United States Department of Defense issued MIL-STD-461 in 1967 to integrate electromagnetic compatibility into the research and development stage for defense communications technology. [2]
IEC 61000-3-2 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Part 3-2: Limits – Limits for harmonic current emissions (equipment input current ≤ 16 A per phase) is an international standard that limits mains voltage distortion by prescribing the maximum value for harmonic currents from the second harmonic up to and including the 40th harmonic current.
Usually, the electrical appliance must be factory tested with standards for conducted emission, as the list of common EMC test standards denotes. Moreover, different manufacturers hold different versions of these standards as fit best to their appliances and warranty schemes. Fig. 2. Conducted Emissions from a commercial DC buck converter
A TEM or transverse electromagnetic cell is a type of test chamber used to perform electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) or electromagnetic interference (EMI) testing. It allows for the creation of far field electromagnetic fields in a small enclosed setting, or the detection of electromagnetic fields radiated within the chamber.
A line filter (aka EMC filter, EMI filter, RFI filter) is an electronic filter that is placed between the mains electricity input and internal circuitry of electronic equipment to attenuate conducted radio frequencies radio frequency interference (RFI), also known as electromagnetic interference (EMI).

CISPR has prepared a guide for applying its standards which is available on the EMC zone of the IEC website. CISPR 25 is an increasingly popular benchmark and requirement for body electronics in the automotive electronics market.
