CS116 TEST
TURKAK Accredited Testing and Verification
STEST is accredited by the Turkish Accreditation Institution (TURKAK) and carries out its testing and verification activities in an independent, competent, and impartial manner in compliance with national and international standards.
CS116 Test (Conducted Susceptibility, Damped Sinusoidal Transients on Cables 10kHz–100MHz)
The CS116 test, defined within the scope of MIL-STD-461, is intended to evaluate the immunity of electrical and electronic equipment to conducted electromagnetic disturbances carried on AC power leads. The test verifies compatibility with other onboard systems and assesses equipment robustness against electromagnetic effects coupled through AC power lines. By ensuring stable operation during mission conditions, CS116 supports overall electromagnetic compatibility across the platform.
Purpose of the CS116 Test Objective
- Assess immunity to conducted electromagnetic disturbances coupled onto AC power leads.
- Verify compatible operation with other onboard systems and resistance to AC power-line coupled electromagnetic effects.
- Support electromagnetic compatibility by ensuring stable operation under mission conditions.
Scope of the CS116 Test Scope
- Applicable to military equipment with AC power input leads.
- Tests are performed while the equipment operates under normal operating conditions.
- Frequency ranges and limit values defined in MIL-STD-461 revisions E, F, and G are taken as the basis.
- Covers equipment used on land, naval, and airborne platforms.
CS116 Test Method Process
- Controlled electromagnetic disturbances are coupled onto the equipment via AC power leads.
- Stable line impedance conditions are ensured throughout the test.
- Disturbance waveforms are applied using EMI generators in accordance with the standard.
- Equipment performance and any malfunctions are monitored and recorded.
- Results determine the equipment’s immunity level to AC power-lead conducted electromagnetic disturbances.
