BS EN 61000-3-2:1995 is a British Standard that specifies limits for harmonic current emissions from electrical equipment with a rated input current of up to and including 16 A per phase. The standard is part of the larger EN 61000 series, which deals with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for electrical and electronic devices.
Specifically, BS EN 61000-3-2:1995 sets limits on the harmonic currents that equipment can introduce into the electrical supply network. Harmonic currents are multiples of the fundamental frequency (50 Hz in Europe) and can cause distortion in the voltage waveform, leading to potential problems for other connected devices and the power distribution system.
The standard establishes limits for harmonic current emissions based on the type of equipment and its rated input current. Compliance with these limits helps ensure that electrical equipment does not introduce excessive harmonic currents, which can cause interference with other equipment and affect the overall power quality in the electrical grid.
It's important to note that the information provided is based on the knowledge cutoff of September 2021. Therefore, there might have been updates or revisions to the standard since then. It's recommended to refer to the latest version of the standard or consult the relevant authorities for the most up-to-date information.
