6.3 Electrically Caused Fire – IEC 62368-1

This test examines EUT’s power source circuit classifications, potential ignition sources, safeguards against fire under normal operating and abnormal operation conditions, safeguards against fire under single fault conditions and internal and external wiring, and so forth. Testing the EUT is required to measure input power to the EUT to determine the power classification and potential ignition sources. The EUT is configured to its intended operational mode in the frequency band being investigated. The configuration and mode of operation used in the measurement is noted in the test report. For detailed list of electrically caused fire requirements and test methods, see 6 of IEC 62638-1 [20]. The test procedure for input power to the EUT measurement is described in the following steps.

  • Connect the EUT as shown in Figure 2-1.
  • Connect Ammeter in between the Power Supply and EUT.
  • If it requires use Companion device for link performance testing.
  • Switch ON the EUT and other test equipment.
  • Set the Power supply to the desired voltage level.
  • Use the Radio Testing Tool [9] to setup and configure the EUT. For setting and up configuring the EUT, see the Radio Testing Tool User's Guide [10].
  • Open the Radio Testing Tool [9] and setup the link with the EUT by using the Setup tab.
  • Open the Tx tab and set the transmission mode to “Continuous”.
  • Configure the EUT to the desired parameters such as Channel/Frequency, Data Rate, Data Pattern, Power Level, and so forth).
  • Click on “ Start Tx Testing”.
  • Carry out the test as per clause 6 of IEC 62638-1 [20].
  • Measure the applied voltage on the Power supply, current drawn by the EUT.
  • Calculate Power (Watts) from the above test results and record the levels in the test report.
  • Repeat the above for other data rates/modulations and also other desired channels to determine worst case condition.
