FOREWORD
The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization
1)
comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to
promote international cooperation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and
electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards.
Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the
subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and
non -governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC
collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with
conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters, prepared by technical committees on
2)
which all the National Committees having a special interest therein are represented, express, as nearly as
possible, an international consensus of opinion on the subjects dealt with.
3) They have the form of recommendations for international use published in the form of standards, technical
reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.
4) In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC International
Standards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Any
divergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearly
indicated in the latter.
The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In
exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical
repo rt of one of the following types:
type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an

International Standard, despite repeated effo rts;
type 2, when the subject is still under technical development or where for any other

reason there is the future but not immediate possibility of an agreement on an International
Standard;
type 3, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that

which is normally published as an International Standard, for example "state of the art".
s of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publication to
Technical repo rt
decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. Technical reports of
type 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data they provide are considered
to be no longer valid or useful.

ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY (EMC) -
Part 3: Limits -
Section 5: Limitation of voltage fluctuations and
flicker in low-voltage power supply systems for
equipment with rated current greater than 16 A
1 Scope
This section of IEC 1000-3 is concerned with the emission of disturbances due to voltage
fluctuations and flicker.
The recommendations in this Technical Report are applicable to electrical and electronic
equipment intended to be connected to a public low-voltage a.c. distribution system,
where the equipment has a rated input current exceeding 16 A per phase, or has a lower
rated current, but requires the special consent of the supply authority.
The recommendations that specify the information required to enable a supply authority,
manufacturer, or consumer to assess equipment and appropriate questionnaires are included
as annexes A and B.
Guidance is also given on emission values of voltage fluctuations produced by equipment
which has been type tested to the specified conditions given in IEC 1000-3-3.
NOTE 1 — The limits recommended in this report are mainly based on the subjective severity of the flicker
of the light output from 230 V/60 W coiled-coil filament lamps as a result of fluctuation of the supply
voltage. For systems with nominal voltages less than 220 V, line-to-neutral, limits, and reference circuit
values have not yet been considered.
The authorization to connect equipment to the supply depends on the levels of disturbance
caused by the equipment and the load flow conditions in the network.
NOTE 2 — For equipment requiring authorization, only general recommendations for the assessment of
disturbances can be given. There is no guarantee that the connection of equipment complying with the
recommendations in clause 3 will be allowed in all cases, as system loading must not exceed plant ratings
(transformers, cables, etc.).
The methods of assessment may be applied also to private consumer installations.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this
text, constitute provisions of this section of IEC 1000-3. At the time of publication, the
editions indicated were valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and pa rties
to agreements based upon this section of IEC 1000-3 are encouraged to investigate the
possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated'
below. Members of the IEC and the ISO maintain registers of currently valid International
Standards.

4 Equipment assessment
4.1 General
Methods of flicker assessment for different types of voltage fluctuations are described in
IEC 1000-3-3.
It is recommended that the supply quality parameters are measured before and after the
connection of a new load which is critical in any respect. The assessment method and
data used should be verified.
The equipment shall comply with the limits for all relevant phase-to-neutral voltages.
4.2
Information from the consumer
When a consumer enquires about connection of a major load to a low-voltage public
supply network he shall, on request, provide information to enable assessment of
the possible disturbances caused by the load. This may be done by completing the
questionnaire contained in annex A.
4.3
Information from the electricity supplier
The electricity supplier may, on request and if appropriate, complete the questionnaire
contained in annex B.
4.4 Information from the manufacturer
If the equipment complies with the requirements given in IEC 1000-3-3, this should be
declared, and no further action is necessary.
If the equipment has an input current up to and including 75 A and does not comply with
IEC 1000-3-3, the manufacturer shall calculate and declare the maximum permissible
system impedance in accordance with 4.6.2. This declaration is given in order to facilitate
the decision of the electricity supplier as to whether or not the equipment may be
connected to the supply system at a particular location. In order to proceed, the tests
of 4.5 are carried out.
If the equipment has a rated input current exceeding 75 A, the procedure in 4.7 shall be
followed.
NOTE — A diagramatic representation of the procedure is given in annex D.
