august 2013 docid024389 rev 1 1/11 AN4275 application note iec 61000-4-5 standard overview introduction the objective of this document is to briefly explain the iec 61000-4-5 standards and to show the benefits of having a range of protection devices specified according to this standard. for further details on iec 61000-4-5 refer to the international electrotechnical commission web site. industrial and consumer equipment are subjected to various surges. here are the main ones: ? iec 61000-4-2: esd surges affect most of consumer equipment. the more stressful esd standard is iec 61000-4-2 (few tens of ns duration) but other standards such as human body model (hbm), machine model (mm) exist. ? iec 61000-4-4: this st andard is made to check the capability of the equipment to survive repetitive electrical fast transients and bursts. ? iec 61000-4-5: lightning and industrial surg es modeled by iec 61000-4-5. this is the one we will describe in this document. ? telecommunication lines are exposed to lightning either directly on the equipment or due to induced effect because of ground potential change. in addition to these surges, a telecommunication line may also be disturbed by either power induction or power contact with main ac lines . depending on the country, these surges have been mainly modeled in: ? telcordia gr-1089 core for america with 2/10 s and 10/1000 s surges ? itu-t k series for the rest of the world with 10/700 s surges www.st.com
iec 61000-4-5 AN4275 2/11 docid024389 rev 1 1 iec 61000-4-5 power lines are subjected to switching and lightning transients. 1.1 power system switching transients power system switching transients can be separated into transients associated with: ? major power system switching disturbances , such as capacitor bank switching ? minor local switching activity or load changes in the power distribution system ? resonating circuits associated with s witching devices, su ch as thyristors ? various system faults, such as short circuits and arcing faults to the grounding system of the installation 1.2 lightning transients the major mechanisms by which lightning pr oduces surge voltages are the following: ? direct lightning strokes to outdoor circuits injecting high currents and producing over voltages. ? indirect lightning strikes (i .e. strikes between or within clouds or to nearby objects which produce electromagnetic fields) that induce voltages/currents on the conductors outside and/or inside a building. ? lightning ground current flows resulting fr om nearby direct-to-earth discharges coupling into the common ground paths of the grounding system of the installation. the rapid change of voltages and flows of cu rrent which can occur as a result of the operation of a lightning protection device ca n induce electromagnetic disturbances into adjacent equipment. ? target of the iec 61000-4-5 is to provide a model to simulate these surges and then to be able to check if the equipment is able to survive them.

(10 ? + 2 ? ) impedance represents the source impedance of the low-voltage power supply network and ground (common mode). a generator with an additional resistor of 10 ? in series is used. ? the effective 42 ? (40 ? + 2 ? ) impedance represents the source impedance between all other lines and ground. a generator with an additional resistance of 40 ? in series is used. as protection devices are sized with the surge current, table 2 shows the maximum peak current values depending on voltage level and r ext when surge generator is short circuited. 1,2 s 30% t a o 1 0,0 0,1 0,3 0,5 0,9 1,0 u t b 50 s 20% 30% max. t c o 1 0,0 0,1 0,5 0,9 1,0 i t b 2 20 % 0 s 8 20% s 30% max.

iec 61000-4-5 definition AN4275 6/11 docid024389 rev 1 figure 4 and figure 5 show the test schematics when the equipment is connected to power lines. for other types of lines, the decoupling network is slightly different on both line-to-line and line-to-ground tests. furthermore the test must be done with r ext = 40 ?? (see figure 6 ). figure 6. iec 61000-4-5 multi-line test set-up in practice, this surge is applied to equipme nt and not to a specific protection device. if the protection device is directly located at the input of the e quipment, the protection device has to withstand the complete surge. in some cases, the protection devi ce is not located at the input but somewhere in the middle of a board and then the protection device sees a slightly different surge. r ext =0 4 decoupling network combination wave generator e ent quipm under test protection equipm ent auxillary equipm ent
docid024389 rev 1 7/11 AN4275 protection devices 3 protection devices the device used to protect against iec 61000-4- 5 is generally a clamping device located in parallel with the circuit to be protected. this pr otection device limits the voltage to a specified value v cl (clamping voltage) by absorbing the surge current. its surge current capability is specified in its datasheet: i pp (peak pulse current). figure 7 gives the i/v characteristics of a clamping device. figure 7. i/v characteristics of a unidirectional clamping devices the goal of a protection devic e is to survive the surge (i pp ), and to protect the equipment by limiting the surge voltage (v cl ) below the maximum admissible voltage of the equipment/circuit. i pp protection the i pp of the protection must be defined according to the surge. in order to withstand a surge, a protection device should have an i pp (8/20 s surge) higher than the peak current generated by the standard. it is worthless to choose a protection defined by a 10/1000 s surge (this surge is dedicated to telecommunication lines) when the standard requires to comply with 8/20 s. st has been specifying its protection devices wit h 10/1000 s and 8/20 s surges for years. trends toward optimized protection in cost and in size leads us to produce dedicated protection devices specified according to iec 61000-4-5. v cl protection to protect a circuit from a surge, the protection device should have a v cl (8/20 s surge) lower than the maximum voltage the circuit can withstand. using a unidirectional device is safer as clamping voltage will be limited to v cl in one direction and to a forward voltage on the other direction. bidirectional device must be used only if the application requires to accept a reverse plug-in (on dc power lines) or if located on ac lines. i rm v rm v cl v i off-state area working area in case of positive surges working area in case of negative surges i pp

docid024389 rev 1 9/11 AN4275 conclusion 5 conclusion in most countries it is mandatory to comply with the iec 61000-4 series. most of the protection device s are rated with esd capability bu t only a few of them are rated with the surge corresponding to iec 61000-4-5. using the correct protection designed to comply with iec 61000-4-5 is an insurance to get reliable equipment and to avoid costly quality field returns to keep a good brand image. st has developed a range of devices rated according to iec 61000-4-5. for more information, go to the st.com web site and follow the links to the products for power discretes and modules for protection devices. iec 61000-4-5 compliant devices are listed under eos 8/20 microsecon d surge protection (see figure 9 ). figure 9. eos 8/20 s surge protection the use of an iec 61000-4-5 rated protection limits the number of tests to be performed before certification, saves cost and time and reduces the number of quality returns.
