Electrostatic discharge simulation test against LED products according to IEC61000-4-2

The IEC61000-4-2 standard provides guidelines for the testing of electrical equipment, such as LED lights, to determine whether or not they are susceptible to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) occurrences. An Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) simulator is an instrument that is used to test electronic products for their resistance to ESD occurrences. The standard defines the essential characteristics for an ESD simulator, which is an instrument that is used to analyze those parameters. A high voltage pulse that is a realistic portrayal of ESD occurrences that occur in the real world may be generated using an ESD simulator that conforms with IEC61000-4-2. The standard specifies the minimum and maximum test voltages, as well as the minimum and maximum repetition rates for ESD pulses, the form, amplitude, and duration of the ESD pulse, as well as the minimum and maximum repetition rates for ESD pulses. Additionally, the standard details the lowest and highest acceptable test voltages. By tes
