This part of IEC 61340 provides a test method for evaluating the performance of electrostatic discharge shielding bags tested according to the requirements of IEC 61340‑5‑3 . The design voltage for the test apparatus is 1 000 V d.c.
The test method presented in this standard can also be applied to packaging other than shielding bags.
The purpose of this standard is to ensure that testing laboratories who use this test method to evaluate a given packaging material will obtain similar results.
This standard does not address protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), electromagnetic pulsing (EMP) nor protection against volatile materials.
