Overview

IEC 62153-4-12:2009 specifies an electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) test method - the absorbing clamp method - to measure coupling attenuation (also called screening attenuation) of connecting hardware used in analogue and digital communication systems. The standard covers testing a single part of connecting hardware (for example a wall outlet or plug) or a fully mated pair, and is intended to be read in conjunction with IEC 62153-4-5:2006.

Key topics and technical requirements

Scope of measurement: Determination of coupling/screening attenuation at the near end using an absorbing clamp arrangement; typical set-up measures surface waves and common-mode coupling.
Test equipment: Signal generator, absorbing clamp(s) with ferrite tube absorbers, current transformer, measuring receiver, reflector plate, test head and extension cables.
Balun requirements: When measuring balanced connecting hardware, a balun or 180° splitter is required. Key balun parameters (30 MHz–1 GHz) include:
- Primary impedance typically 50 Ω; secondary 100 Ω or 150 Ω depending on cable type
- Operational attenuation ≤ 10 dB
- Return loss ≥ 6 dB
- Output signal balance ≥ 50 dB (30–100 MHz) and ≥ 30 dB (100 MHz–1 GHz)
Test head and extension cables: Use cable types and terminations matching the connecting hardware under test. Extension cables must have the same nominal characteristic impedance, similar velocity of propagation, and the near-end terminating cable (including test head) should have operational attenuation
