MIL-STD-461G / DO-160G EMC Test Methods and Compliance Training Workshop

Military and Aerospace Systems must comply with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements. MIL-STD-461G is applied to Department of Defense (DoD) procurements for equipment and subsystems and RTCA DO-160G is the EMC certification standard for commercial aviation.  The EMC test and evaluation requirements have a lot of similarities, and this course takes advantage of that similarity through instruction that combines the two standards.

MIL-STD-461G test and evaluation methods will be presented, including system requirements, general requirements, test article configurations, and documentation. This course offers critical information for military compliance professionals, testing industry professionals, and developers involved with electronics systems development. Instruction for each of the MIL-STD-461 test and measurement methods along with an analysis of the test results will be covered.

DO-160G methods are integrated into the course by looking at the differences in requirements that are fundamentally alike during that method’s discussion, along with supplementing the course material with DO-160G test methods that are not part of MIL-STD-461G. This 4-day MIL-STD-461G / DO-160G EMC Test Methods and Compliance course provides a detailed focus on performing the testing, reducing and understanding the data, and managing test problems. It features practical methods to address the complexity of the standard configuration along with concepts to manage unusual product types. Military and Aerospace Systems must comply with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) requirements.

This is an iNARTE-approved training course and qualifies for the CPD credits required for continuing certification.  If you are not iNARTE certified – ENO Institute can administer the examination – contact us for details.

Audience/Target Group:

The target audience for this MIL-STD-461G / DO-160G EMC Test Methods and Compliance Course:

• Test personnel to learn how to implement the tests
• Design teams to learn what to consider in their design to pass the tests
• Technical Leads and Requirements Managers to understand how to write correct test requirements
• Personnel responsible for test plans
• Program Managers to understand the test scheduling and planning. Also, it is important for them to establish a “test review team”.

Objectives:

After completing this MIL-STD-461G / DO-160G EMC Test Methods and Compliance course, students will be able to:

• System and Hardware engineers: to enable them to develop airborne systems based on a familiarity with the DO-160G requirements that will help avoid expensive redesigns to correct potential issues found late in the development process.
• Test engineers: to enable them to develop/write the test plans/procedures (including test means/tools), and provide them with the guidelines to conduct the tests and write the Environmental Qualification report.
• System/Environmental qualification engineers: to reinforce their knowledge and to enhance their ability to conduct Audits to ensure compliance with the Certification objectives.
• Others: Certification specialists, project or process managers, to familiarize them with the Environmental Testing concepts and underlying principles needed to obtain approval by the regulatory authorities.
