EMC testing

EMC testing, also known as electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), one of the most important indicators of product quality, refers to the comprehensive interference size (EMI) and anti-interference ability (EMS) evaluation of electronic products in the electromagnetic field. Electromagnetic compatibility measurement consists of the test site and test instruments.

The purpose of EMC test is to detect the influence of electromagnetic radiation produced by electrical products on human body, power grid in public places and other electrical products in normal operation.
