Severity levels
• For air discharge all test levels up to requirement have to be tested.
• For contact discharge only the specified test levels have to be tested (however,
we recommend to continue testing as for air discharge).
• Maximum 1 discharge per second
• min. 10 discharges with stronger polarity
1 2 kV 2 kV
2 4 kV 4 kV
3 8 kV 6 kV
4 15 kV 8 kV

• Direct discharge
– All accessible points (touchable by user)
– Housing: edges, angles, surfaces, slots,
indicator parts
– Operating parts: switches, buttons, plugs,
etc.
– Interfaces with metallic housing:
only contact discharge on plug housing
– Interfaces with isolated housing:
only air discharge on plug housing
– In certain cases product standards can
request the discharge on pins
• Indirect discharge
– Edge of vertical coupling plane, VCP with 10 cm
distance to each EUT side.
– Edge of horizontal coupling plane, EUT with each side
with 10 cm distance to the discharge point.
