7.3 Electromagnetic Compatibility of Bus Cables
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is the capability of an electrical installation to
function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without influencing this
environment and interfering with other installations and equipment belonging to it
(in compliance with DIN VDE 0870).
This mutual influence can take the form of electrical, magnetic, and
electromagnetic effects. These effects can spread both over cable connections (for
example a common power supply) or due to radiated interference.
To avoid external interference affecting electrical systems, these effects must be
reduced to a certain level. The measures involved include the design, structure,
and correct connection of bus cables. The components and bus cables for
SIMATIC NET Industrial Ethernet meet the requirements of the European
standards for devices used in an industrial environment. This is documented by the
CE marking.
Note
Adherence to the specified limit values can only be guaranteed when using
components from the SIMATIC NET Industrial Ethernet range exclusively and by
keeping to the installation instructions in this manual!
