Overview

MIL-STD-461A: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) Characteristics Requirements for Equipment (08/01/68)
Establishes requirements and test limits for the measurement and determination of EMI emissions and susceptibility characteristics of electronic, electrical and electromechanical equipment. The requirements are applied for general, multi-service procurements and single service procurements, as specified in individual equipment specifications, contracts, and orders.
