Chapter Title Contents
Preface Describes the purpose, background, and
scope of this manual. Also specifies the
audience for whom this manual is
intended.
1 Electrical Noise Control
Overview Provides a brief understanding of the need
for electrical noise control, how noise
affects system performance, noise
coupling methods, and solutions.
2 High Frequency (HF) Bonding Describes the ground plane principle and
provides techniques for bonding devices,
panels, machines, floors, doors, and
buildings.
3 Segregating Sources and
Victims Describes how establishing zones within
your system for noise sensitive or noise
generating components can reduce
electrical noise coupling.
4 Shielding Wires, Cables, and
Components Describes how using shielded cable or
steel shields can reduce electrical noise.
5 Filtering Noise Describes how low-pass filters and ferrite
sleeves can reduce electrical noise.
6 Contact Suppression Describes how contact suppressors for
relays and various other switches can
reduce electrical noise.
7 Power Distribution Describes bonding, segregating, shielding,
and filtering techniques for use when
routing AC and DC power.
8 Motor Wiring Describes shielding, grounding, and
splicing techniques for use with motor
wiring.
9 High Speed Registration
Inputs Describes how wiring sensitive to
electrical noise benefits from proper noise
reduction strategies.
10 Encoders Describes bonding, segregating, shielding,
and filtering techniques for use with
encoders.
11 Measuring Noise Reduction
Effectiveness Describes the equipment, methods, and
various guidelines for measuring noise
levels and noise reduction effectiveness.
Appendix A Noise Control Supplement Provides background information on
specific topics related to electrical noise
control.
Appendix B EMC Product Suppliers Provides a list of EMC product suppliers,
the products they offer, and internet
website.
