ITU-T K.42 (05/1998)

Preparation of emission and immunity requirements for telecommunication equipment – General principles

This Recommendation explains the basic principles on which EMC standardization is based in ITU-T taking into account EMC standards published by IEC and CISPR. It describes procedures which are followed in the preparation of ITU-T Recommendations on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements which apply to telecommunications equipment. Recommendations concerning resistibility requirements for equipment as well as EMC characteristics of telecommunications networks, mitigation methods, bonding and earthing, etc. are outside the scope of this Recommendation.
