The test levels and the performance criteria which are given in this European Standard reflect the fact that lifts, escalators and moving walks when in use, consist generally of self-contained apparatus (e.g. machine room, car, etc.).

Introduction
This European Standard is a Type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100.
This European Standard has been prepared to provide one means of conforming to the requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive, the Lifts Directive and the Machinery Directive The requirements of this European Standard have been specified so as to ensure an adequate level of electromagnetic immunity for most cases
The apparatus concerned and the extent to which hazardous situations and events are covered are indicated in the scope of this document.
Where the provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or Test levels and immunity performance criteria are defined for:
—? apparatus which are safety components or are used in conjunction with safety components, (safety circuits);
—? apparatus used in general function circuits.
The test levels and requirements are given on the basis that the apparatus, generally, is connected to a low voltage system.
The requirements for safety circuits provide one means of demonstrating conformity with the essential health and safety requirements of the Lifts Directive and the Machinery Directive with regard to immunity against electromagnetic phenomena.
Due to the size of an installed lift, it becomes impracticable to test the total assembly either in a test laboratory or in situ where the uncontrolled environment may also influence the test procedures and results. This applies also to measurements within the car. Similar considerations regarding dimensions apply equally to the testing of escalators and moving walks.
Rational to the revision of the standard EN 12016:1998
a) Important changes
The Scope excludes severe electromagnetic environments and apparatus already proven to be in conformity with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive.
The term “installation” has been changed to “system”. This is due to the fact that official interpretation defines that fixed installations are not covered by the conformity assessment procedures for CE marking and declaration of conformity according to the EMC Directive. The scope of the standard is applicable to the apparatus and assembly of apparatus of lifts and escalators and assembly into systems.
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field above 500 MHz, these are extended to cover the digital mobile telephone services up to 1960 MHz.
New requirements for surge testing on safety circuits.
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field regarding safety devices as defined by the Lifts Directive and mobile telephones or radio-transmitters as a result of a risk assessment. It is assumed that mobile telephones and radio-transmitters are not used at frequencies up to 166 MHz near safety circuits of equipment covered by the scope of this standard.
Higher requirements on several environmental phenomena considering the progress on EMC technology and the results of the risk assessment.
New requirements have been introduced for immunity to mains power supply voltage interruptions and voltage dips.
b) Environmental issues
Lifts, escalators and moving walks are systems whose component apparatus/assembly of apparatus are distributed (and some of which move) throughout the building. The definition in EMC terms of the use of the building (residential or industrial) cannot be predetermined or assumed to be fixed. Therefore, to cover requirements in all cases, no differentiation between environments has been made and a single set of limits has been maintained.
Severe electromagnetic environments have not been considered. Examples of these are: radio-transmitter stations, railways and metros, heavy industrial plant, electricity power stations. Additional tests and immunity measures may need to be taken on apparatus to be used in these environments.
It is assumed that no ports connected to safety circuit only are rated at currents greater than 100 A.
Rational to the revision of the standard EN 12016:2004+A1:2008
New requirements on radio frequency electromagnetic field to cover the digital mobile telephone services and wireless communication systems up to 2 655 MHz.
Performance criteria requirements for radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment as defined by Directive 1999/5/EC used in combined apparatus/assembly of apparatus. 1 Scope
1.1 This European Standard specifies the immunity performance criteria and test levels for apparatus used in lifts, escalators and moving walks which are intended to be permanently installed in buildings including the basic safety requirements in regard to their electromagnetic environment. These levels represent essential EMC requirements.
The standard refers to EM conditions as existing in residential, office and industrial buildings.
This standard addresses commonly known EMC related hazards and hazardous situations relevant to lifts, escalators and moving walks when they are used as intended and under the conditions foreseen by the lift installer or escalator and/or moving walk manufacturer.
However:
—? performance criteria and test levels for apparatus/assembly of apparatus used in general function circuits do not cover situations with an extremely low probability of occurrence;
—? this standard does not apply to other apparatus already proven to be in conformity to the EMC Directive, and not related to the safety of the lift, escalator or moving walk, such as lighting apparatus, commun
