ÁHÁRecommendation K.21 should be followed when assessing the resistibility of equipment to be connected directly to a telecommunication network. 2.ÁHÁÃÃScopeÄÄ ÁHÁThe Recommendation relates to any terminal equipment which is intended to be connected to the 4©wire T/S bus of an ISDN installation. It presumes that suitable isolation is provided between the telecommunication network and the T/S bus at the network termination. It is also assumed that the S©bus has no connection to earth e.g. no earth©connected voltage©limiting devices with non© linear characteristics can be used. In cases where these assumptions cannot be made, Recommendation K.21 should be followed. 3.ÁHÁÃÃOvervoltage and overcurrent conditionsÄÄ ÁHÁAspects of overvoltage or overcurrent covered by this Recommendation are: ÁHÁ©Âà  Âsurges due to lightning strokes on telecommunication lines or to the building housing the equipment;ÆÆ ÁHÁ©Âà  Âelectrostatic discharges generated by users touching the equipment or adjacent plant;ÆÆ ÁHÁ©Âà  Âlightning transient surges on mains © voltage power supplies to the equipment.ÆÆ 4.ÁHÁÃÃEquipment boundaryÄÄ ÁHÁVariations in equipment make it necessary for each unit to be seen as a "black©box" having three or more terminals, A, B ... etc. Some protective devices may have already been provided within the equipment, e.g., distributed on cards, or connected to internal terminals. For the purpose of these tests manufacturers are expected to define the boundaries of the "black©box" and any protective device which is thereby included must be considered an immutable part of the equipment. 5.ÁHÁÃÃTest conditionsÄÄ ÁHÁThe following general conditions apply: 5.1ÁHÁAll tests are type tests. 5.2ÁHÁThe input terminals at which tests on the equipment are to be applied should be identified by the manufacturer and labelled A, B .... 5.3ÁHÁThe equipment may be enclosed in a foil shroud which is connected to the earth terminal (if it is provided), when tests are made under ÀÀÀÀ 7 and 9. 5.4ÁHÁThe equipment should be tested in each operating mode of significant duration. 5.5ÁHÁThe equipment should pass tests under ÀÀÀÀ 7 and 9 throughout the ranges of temperature and humidity of its intended use. 5.6ÁHÁIn all cases where a maximum voltage is specified, tests shall also be made at lower voltages if it is necessary to confirm that the equipment will resist any voltage up to the maximum specified. 6.ÁHÁÃÃTest complianceÄÄ ÁHÁEquipment shall withstand all tests without damage or other disturbance, e.g., corruption of software, misoperation or fault©protection facilities, and shall operate properly within specified limits after the tests. It is not required to operate correctly while the test condition is present. If specifically permitted by an administration, the tests may cause the operation of fuses or other devices which have to be replaced or reset before normal operation is restored. 7.ÁHÁÃÃSurge testsÄÄ 7.1ÁHÁÃÃTest circuitsÄÄ ÁHÁThree alternative test circuits may be used: ÁHÁ©Âà  Âa surge generator of 1.2/50 ÀÀs open©circuit voltage waveshape and 8/20 ÀÀs short©circuit current waveshape;ÆÆ ÁHÁ©Âà  Âa surge generator providing a 2/10 ÀÀs open©circuit voltage waveshape and short©circuit current waveshape;ÆÆ ÁHÁ©Âà  Âa surge generator of 1.2/50 ÀÀs open©circuit voltage waveshape and corresponding short©circuit current waveshape. Figure 1 illustrates a typical test circuit.ÆÆ ÁHÁThe short©circuit current provided by the surge generator shall be approximately 100 amps. ÁHÁ Ô ñ,ÔŒ
