ITU-T K.44 Resistibility tests for telecommunication equipment exposed to overvoltages and overcurrents – Basic Recommendation
ITU-T K.44 by the International Telecommunication Union is part of series K which is based on protection against interference (EMI). This Telecommunications Standard puts forth immunity requirements and test procedures for equipment used by network operators and manufacturers. ITU-T K.44 is designed to be used in conjunction with ITU-T K.11 and ITU-T K.39 that focus on the general economic and technical aspects of protection. This basic telecom publication does not cover ESD. ITU-T specific standards have precedence over ITU-T K.44 regarding testing methods and recommendations. This telecom standard can be downloaded from the International Telecommuncations Union Website.
