Development of Recommendations for Testing of Large Objects for Hardness to Powerful Electromagnetic Fields

This research considers the main approaches to testing for hardness and describes the main types of tests. The task is to develop basic recommendations for methods that allow testing of large objects for hardness. There have been found the most suitable in relation to the requirements methods and means for testing. In addition, this paper gives a basic concepts of the different measurement tools used indoors and outside for electromagnetic compatibility testing. In the end of the paper, the basic recommendations during testing, the recommendations for the choice of test systems, the location devices and interconnect cables, and the recommendations for an open test site have been listed. The results can be useful in the selection and preparation of tests for resistance to electromagnetic impacts for the aviation and marine engineering.
