Recent and Future Standards
for Harmonics EN/IEC 61000-3-2 and Flicker EN/IEC 61000-3-3

  • ZES ZIMMER consulting partnership in standardization commitees assures precocious support of the newest standards.
  • Existing customer owned power sources may be implemented and stay on for use, even for systems wich are discontinued in availability and support by their manufacturer e.g. HP/Agilent and others.

 Overview of international standards relating to harmonics and flicker.

DOW = Date of withdrawal
The latest date by which national standards conflicting with an EN (and HD for CENELEC) have to be withdrawn

OJEC = Official Journal Of The European Communities
This standards (and further) are mandatory for the CE sign according to the EMC directive 89/336/EEC resp. 89/336/EWG

CDV = Committee draft for vote

FDIS = Final draft international standard

(1) Not listed in OJEC but mandatory by links in 61000-3-2/-3
(2) Despite the same number and date EN and IEC documents in this case are different
