Mil-Std 462

MIL-STD-462 is a military U.S. standard that establishes testing and measurement procedures to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) in military systems. It ensures electronic equipment and systems don't emit unwanted signals that can disrupt other devices, and are also resistant to external electromagnetic sources. The standard helps maintain reliable communication, navigation, and weapon systems by setting guidelines for testing levels of EMI emission and susceptibility. This ensures that military equipment functions correctly in complex electromagnetic environments, supporting operational effectiveness and safety.
