IEC 61000的这一部分提供了原则指导，可用作确定波动装置与中压、高压和超高压公共电力系统连接要求的基础（低压装置在其他IEC文件中涵盖）。出于本报告的目的，波动装置是指产生电压闪烁和/或快速电压变化的装置（可以是负载或发电机）。主要目标是为系统运营商或业主提供工程实践方面的指导，这将有助于为所有连接的客户提供足够的服务质量。在处理装置时，本文件无意取代排放限值的设备标准。本报告讨论了系统吸收扰动的能力的分配。它没有解决如何减轻干扰，也没有解决如何增加系统的容量。由于本报告中概述的指南必然基于某些简化假设，因此不能保证这种方法总是为所有闪烁情况提供最佳解决方案。当全部或部分应用给定的评估程序时，就工程而言，建议的方法应具有灵活性和工程判断。系统操作员或所有者负责规定波动装置与系统连接的要求。波动安装应理解为客户的完整安装（即包括波动和非波动部件）。与电压波动相关的问题分为两个基本类别:-由于电压波动而产生的来自光源的闪烁效应； -即使在正常工作电压容差内，快速电压变化也被认为是干扰现象。 该报告为不同电压电平之间的闪烁发射的协调提供了指导，以满足使用点的兼容性水平。本报告主要侧重于控制或限制闪烁，但包括一个条款来解决快速电压变化的限制。第二版取消并取代了1996年出版的第一版，构成了技术修订。这个新版本比最初的技术报告（第1版）明显更加精简，并反映了在应用第一版中获得的经验。本技术报告也与IEC/TR 61000-3-6和IEC/TR 61000-3-13保持一致。根据IEC指南107，本技术报告具有基本EMC出版物的地位。

This part of IEC 61000 provides guidance on principles which can be used as the basis for determining the requirements for the connection of fluctuating installations to MV, HV and EHV public power systems (LV installations are covered in other IEC documents). For the purposes of this report, a fluctuating installation means an installation (which may be a load or a generator) that produces voltage flicker and / or rapid voltage changes. The primary objective is to provide guidance to system operators or owners on engineering practices which will facilitate the provision of adequate service quality for all connected customers. In addressing installations, this document is not intended to replace equipment standards for emission limits. This report addresses the allocation of the capacity of the system to absorb disturbances. It does not address how to mitigate disturbances, nor does it address how the capacity of the system can be increased. Since the guidelines outlined in this report are necessarily based on certain simplifying assumptions, there is no guarantee that this approach will always provide the optimum solution for all flicker situations. The recommended approach should be used with flexibility and engineering judgment as far as engineering is concerned, when applying the given assessment procedures in full or in part. The system operator or owner is responsible for specifying requirements for the connection of fluctuating installations to the system. The fluctuating installation is to be understood as the customer's complete installation (i.e. including fluctuating and non fluctuating parts). Problems related to voltage fluctuations fall into two basic categories:
- Flicker effect from light sources as a result of voltage fluctuations;
- Rapid voltage changes even within the normal operational voltage tolerances are considered as a disturbing phenomenon.
The report gives guidance for the coordination of the flicker emissions between different voltage levels in order to meet the compatibility levels at the point of utilisation. This report primarily focuses on controlling or limiting flicker, but a clause is included to address the limitation of rapid voltage changes. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 1996 and constitutes a technical revision. This new edition is significantly more streamlined than the original technical report (Edition 1), and reflects the experiences gained in the application of the first edition. This technical report has also been harmonised with IEC/TR 61000-3-6 and IEC/TR 61000-3-13. This Technical Report has the status of a basic EMC publication in accordance with IEC Guide 107.
