This document specifies a method, procedures and the specifications for an apparatus to be used for testing the magnetic field sensitivity of vibration and shock transducers. It is applicable to all kinds of vibration and shock transducers.

This document is applicable for a reference test sinusoidal magnetic field having a root mean square (r.m.s.) value more than 10^–3 T at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. Typically, a test magnetic field of 10^–2 T at 50 Hz or 60 Hz is used.

This document is primarily intended for those who are required to meet internationally standardized methods for the measurement of magnetic field sensitivity under laboratory conditions.
