Electromagnetism is electricity
• Conducted disturbances- Current i (in amps) 10 mA (permanent) to > 10 amps (peak)
- Voltage u (in volts) 1 V (permanent) to > 1 kV (peak)
- Impedance Z = u / i (in ohms) typically 40 to 400 (in HF)
- Power P = uxi (in watts) mW (permanent) to > MW (transient)
- Delay of propagation 5 ns/m (in any cable)
• Radiated disturbances- Magnetic field H (in A/m) B may exceed 100 mT in DC
- Electric field E (in V/m) 1 V/m (CW) to kV/m (impulse)
- Impedance (Z = E / H, in ) 377 for “far field” in air or vacuum
- Power density (P = ExH, in W/m2) 1 W/m2 (CW) to MW/m2 (transient)
- Propagation speed 300 000 km/s in air or in vacuum

The Ground Loop problem
Small DMloop area
A variable magnetic field (difficult to shield at LF) induces voltage across loops
A
a
Larger CMground loop
This ground loop area is unavoidable
It should be reduced by:
- Laying the cables down over the (metallic) ground plane
- Using cable trays (in contact from one end to the other)
- Using shielded cables with connection at both ends
A raised floor loop is not a ground loop
It is a favourable loop:
- It lowers the common mode impedance
- It divides the common mode currents
- It reduces the external EM fields
