IEC 61000-4-4

IEC 61000-4-4 is an international standard that outlines how electronic devices should withstand electrical fast transients and surges, which can occur during power fluctuations. These fast transients are brief, high-energy spikes that can disrupt or damage electronic equipment. The standard specifies testing methods to ensure devices can endure these conditions without failure, promoting reliability and safety in various environments, such as industrial settings or homes. By adhering to this standard, manufacturers help protect their products from common electrical disturbances, ensuring they function properly and last longer.
