Lightning Currents for electronic systems

The Lightning Currents testing under MIL-STD-461 is essential for evaluating the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of military equipment. This test simulates the effects of lightning strikes on electronic systems, assessing their immunity to high current transients that can cause damage or malfunction. By subjecting devices to these simulated lightning currents, the test ensures that they can operate reliably in harsh environments. Compliance with MIL-STD-461 enhances the resilience of military systems, ensuring dependable performance even in the face of extreme electrical disturbances.
