EMC SAFETY FOR ALL SENSITIVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS

摘要

This paper presents a variety of factors that need to be considered concerning the application of a new electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) concept for EMC studies and also the protection that is needed for large electrically sensitive systems. This concept is called the "Zero Method" it is based upon zero volts and zero current on equipment reference conductors. The "Zero Method" can assist: hospitals, electrophysiology units, manufacturing companies, data-centers, electrical utility companies, gas companies, petroleum companies, hydroelectric plants and more to create economically and technically sound solutions to protect against electromagnetic interferences caused by lightning effects and the effects of industrial power disturbances. During the last fifteen years, case studies have proven the "Zero Method's" efficiency and effectiveness with long-term solutions to EMC issues. These solutions not only improve safety for personnel in the facilities, but also can reduce equipment maintenance cost while improving equipment reliability.
