The limits and methods of measurement laid down in this International Standard apply to industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) equipment, and to electro-discharge machining (EDM) and arc welding equipment. Procedures are given for the measurement of radio-frequency disturbances and limits are laid down within the frequency range 9 kHz to 400 GHz. Requirements for ISM lighting apparatus operating in the ISM frequency bands of 915 MHz (only allowed in region 2 as defined by the ITU Radio Regulations), 2,45 GHz and 5,8 GHz are contained in this standard. Requirements for other types of lighting apparatus are covered in CISPR 15.
