IEC 61000-4-11

IEC 61000-4-11 is a standard that outlines how electrical and electronic equipment should perform during temporary power interruptions and voltage changes. It specifies tests for short outages, voltage dips, and short surges to ensure devices can handle these electrical disturbances without malfunctioning. Essentially, it helps manufacturers design reliable products that can withstand common fluctuations in power supply, aiming to improve overall safety and performance in various environments, from homes to industrial settings. By adhering to this standard, devices are better equipped to function smoothly under less-than-ideal electrical conditions.
