This seminr ws conducted by three former chirmen of orgnized technicl seminr on the topic Wht you EMC Society Hong Kong: Dr. Peter Leung, Dr. Ptrick Wong Dr. Brin Chn. y ll hve very extensive experience on providing consulttion to locl overses rilwy networks prcticl on- site testing. seminr consisted of three prts: EMC mngement in Rilwy Systems by Dr. Leung, EMC Test Lbortories for Complince Mtrix in In the second prt of the seminr, Dr. Ptrick Wong presented the EMC Complince Mtrix t individul rilwy equipment level. Complince Mtrix ims for EMC requirement for ll key items of equipment of the rilwy system to be in line with the EM zoning type test requirements s. designted test requirements for individul equipment Complince Mtrix will form the bsic building block t equipment level for good EMC mngement vi system integrtion. Dr. Wong lso presented complete overviews of complince tests ccording to relted EMC strds. Exmples on test setup in lbortory conditions some smple test results were lso discussed in Dr. Wong s presenttion. In the third prt of the seminr, Dr. Brin Chn presented the EMC Site Acceptnce Test of Rilwy Systems. post instlltion Site Acceptnce Test is finl verifiction process in constructing n EMC Sfety document. This process is done by on-site of mesurement, prior to the commissioning equipment/systems. This prt of the presenttion ws minly bout spects of on-site test in line with EN50121. Exmples cses were shred by Dr. Chn for showing the difficulties considertion during the on-site test. Hong Kong Section IEEE-life Newsletter, 15 Februry 2017 Pge 5 of 6
