Automation of low frequency conducted susceptibility (CS01) test

Conducted and radiated mode EMI/EMC tests are carried out at subsystem level to establish Electromagnetic compatibility in spacecraft. EMI/EMC test requirements of ISRO spacecraft subsystems are derived from MIL-STD 461C and the procedure given in MIL-STD 462. Low frequency conducted susceptibility test (CS01) is automated to perform the test accurately from 30Hz to 50kHz. The power line impedance of subsystem is also computed as a part of automation. This automation is done by controlling the instrument with GIPB interface and visual basic is used as the programming language.
