MRT Suzhou laboratory added new test capability of power line communication standard EN 50561-1

MRT Technology as a well-known third party organization which focus on testing and certification service provider, recently announced that PLC product test ability has added.

MRT is the only test laboratory which conform to the latest version of the standard EN 50561-1 currently, and completed the domestic well-known enterprise PLC product testing and certification work successfully.

Power Line Communication (PLC) technology is a kind of communication method of transmitting data and media signal with power line. This technology is to load the high frequency of information into the electric current and then use the wire to transmit the received information from the adapter and then the high frequency from the current to separate and send to the computer or phone to achieve information transmission. Power Line communication full name is the Power Line Carrier - PLC communication, is refers to the use of high voltage Power Line (in the field of Power Carrier usually refers to more than 35 kV voltage grade), medium voltage Power Line (10 kV voltage level) or low voltage distribution lines (380/220 v) as the information transmission medium.
