1 0 Performance criteria

The variety and th e diversity of th e EUT with i n th e scope of this docum en t m akes i t difficu lt to
defin e precise criteri a for the eval uation of th e im m unity test results.

I f, as a resu lt of the appl ication of th e tests defi n ed in th is docu m ent, th e apparatu s becom es
dan gerou s or u nsafe, th e apparatu s sh al l be deem ed to h ave fail ed th e test.

A fu ncti onal descri pti on an d a defi n iti on of perform ance cri teri a, duri ng or as a consequence
of th e EM C testing , sh all be provided by th e m an ufacturer an d n oted i n th e test report, based
on on e of th e fol lowi n g criteria for each test as specifi ed i n Tables A. 1 to A. 8.

Performance criterion A : The EUT sh all con tin u e to operate as i ntended duri n g and after th e
test. N o deg radati on of perform ance or loss of fu ncti on is al lowed below a perform ance level
specified by th e m anu factu rer, wh en th e EUT is u sed as i ntended. The perform ance level m ay
be repl aced by a perm issible l oss of perform ance. I f th e m inim um perform ance level or th e
perm issibl e perform ance l oss is n ot specifi ed by th e m an ufacturer, ei th er of these m ay be
deri ved from the product description an d docum entati on an d what the user m ay reason abl y
expect from the EUT if u sed as i nten ded.

Performance criterion B : The EUT shal l conti n ue to operate as i ntended after the test. N o
degradation of perform an ce or l oss of function is al lowed below a perform ance level specifi ed
by th e m an ufacturer, when th e EUT is u sed as i ntended. Th e perform ance l evel m ay be
repl aced by a perm issible l oss of perform ance. Du rin g th e test, deg radation of perform ance is
however all owed. No chan ge of actual operating state or stored data is allowed. I f th e
m inim um perform ance l evel or th e perm issibl e perform ance l oss is n ot specified by the
m anu factu rer, ei th er of these m ay be deri ved from the product descri pti on an d docum entati on
an d what the user m ay reason abl y expect from th e EUT if used as i ntended.

Performance criterion C : Tem porary loss of fun ction is all owed, provi ded th e function is self-
recoverabl e or can be restored by th e operation of th e controls.
