IEEE 518-1982

The purpose of this document is to develop a guide for the installation and operation of industrial controllers to minimize the disturbing effects of electrical noise on these controllers.

This guide is limited to techniques for the installation of controllers and control systems so that proper operation can be achieved in the presence of electrical noise. This guide is not intended to be a guide for the internal design of electrical controllers or for the prevention of the generation of electrical noise resulting from their operation.

Revision Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn. Techniques for the installation and operation of industrial controllers, so as to minimize the disturbing effects of electrical noise on these controllers, are addressed. The identification of noise in control circuits and the classification of noise are discussed. A systems approach to noise reduction is presented. Installation recommendations and wiring practices are covered.
