b) relevant standards and test methods for harmonic current emission, voltage fluctuation
and flicker;
c) additional requirements for equipment powered by internal or external batteries (Annex C).
NOTE 3 The limits in this document cannot, however, provide full protection against interference to radio and
television reception when the resistance welding equipment is used closer than 30 m to the receiving antenna(e).
NOTE 4 In special cases, when highly susceptible apparatus is being used in close proximity, additional
mitigation measures are sometimes employed to further reduce the electromagnetic emissions.
NOTE 5 The origins of the limit values in this document are summarized in Annex A.
