Abstract
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing is a complex activity that requires adequate infrastructure, skilled personal, and correct working procedures. One of the most efficient ways to validate the testing capabilities of a laboratory is the proficiency testing or interlaboratory comparison. In contrast to proficiency testing in EMC emission, which can be realized, for example, by using a comb generator with an antenna as test object, proficiency testing in EMC immunity is not very common today, mainly because there is no device that is specially designed for this purpose. In this contribution, we present a proficiency testing performed with a device that is specially developed to assess the field immunity testing capabilities of EMC laboratories according to IEC 61000-4-3. We also propose a method for the evaluation of this comparison. Improvements for the next implementations are finally discussed.
