FORD FMC1278 defines electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements for electrical and electronic components in Ford Motor Company (FMC) vehicles. The purpose of this standard is to specify requirements that ensure compliance with current and anticipated domestic and foreign regulations regarding the EMC of the vehicle's electrical components. FORD FMC1278 is specific to the low voltage and high voltage electrical and electronic components and subsystems in a vehicle. This standard defines the EMC requirements for these components during normal operation of the vehicle. Processes relating to the requirements of FMC1278 are in a separate specification (FMC1279) and include the test plan creation, data reporting, and re-validation requirements. FMC1278 is to be used with all 12 V and 124 V DC electrical and electronic components in current and future Ford vehicle programs.

Key applications of the CWS 500N3 are in the automotive and aerospace area. Various international standards and MIL requirements call for magnetic field tests in the low frequency range. Apart from this the automotive industry requires conducted immunity tests with superposed sinusoidal signals on the DC supply voltage (ripple noise). For both applications the CWS 500N3 is the perfect equipment including everything in a single box, necessary for these tests. The CWS 500N3 meets requirements of SAE J1113-2, ISO 11452-8, DO 160D/E Section 18 and MIL-STD-461 D/E/F/G CS101, CS109 and RS101.
The PFS 200N Series Automotive Power Fail simulator is used to comply with standard requirements, mainly from vehicle manufacturers, to perform fast voltage dips ad drops (micro-interruptions). Some standards specify very fast rise and fall times below 1 microsecond an electronic switch.
