23、 Committee has reviewed the provisions of IEC27, to which reference is made in the text, and has decided that they are acceptable for use in conjunction with this British Standard.

29、lankBS6840-1:1987 BSI 06-1999 1 1 Scope This standard applies to sound systems of any kind, and to the parts of which they are composed or which are used as auxiliaries to such systems. This standard deals with the determination of the performance of sound system equipment, the comparison of these t

30、ypes of equipment and the determination of their proper practical application, by listing the characteristics which are useful for their specification and laying down uniform methods of measurements for these characteristics. The standard is confined to a description of the different characteristics

31、 and the relevant methods of measurement; it does not in general specify performance (except in Part10). The complete standard consists of the following parts, in which the characteristics of various parts of sound systems and their methods of measurement are specified; some parts include preferred

32、values: Part1: General; (Uniform characteristics and methods of measurement); Part2: Explanation of General Terms; (Explanation of general terms and calculation methods); Part3: Sound System Amplifiers; (Amplifiers forming part of a sound system for professional and domestic applications); Part4: Mi

33、crophones; (Microphones in professional and domestic applications); Part5: Loudspeakers; (Loudspeakers in professional and domestic applications, treated as entirely passive elements); Part6: Auxiliary Passive Elements; (Attenuators, transformers, filters and equalizers, applied as separate units to

34、 be combined with other separate sound system units); Part7: Headphones and Headsets; (Headphones and headsets intended to be used on the human ear); Part8: Automatic Gain Control Devices; (Limiters and compressors); Part9: Artificial Reverberation, Time Delay and Frequency Shift Equipment; (Devices

35、 commonly employed to achieve special effects in sound systems); Part10: Programme Level Meters; (Peakprogramme meters and vu-indicators); Part11: Connectors for the Interconnection of Sound System Components; (Application of connectors for the interconnection between parts of a sound system); Part1

36、2: Circular Connectors for Broadcast and Similar Use; (Application of connectors for the interconnection between parts of a broadcast or similar professional system); Part13: Listening Test on Loudspeakers; (Listening tests and objective methods for rating the quality of the transmission systems); P

37、art14: Circular and Elliptical Loudspeakers; Outer Frame Diameters and Mounting Dimensions; (Dimensional characteristics of single moving-coil (dynamic) loudspeakers); Part15: Preferred Matching Values for the Interconnection of Sound System Components; (Preferred electrical values for the correct i

38、nterconnection of sound system components). 2 Units and system of measurement The International System of Units (SI units) as given in IEC Publication27: Letter Symbols to be Used in Electrical Technology, is used exclusively in this standard. 3 Frequencies of measurement If measurements are to be m

39、ade at discrete frequencies, then these shall be the frequencies specified as preferred frequencies for acoustical measurements in ISO Standard266, reproduced in Table I. If a measurement relates to a reference frequency, then, in the absence of a clear reason to the contrary, this shall be the stan

40、dard reference frequency of1 000Hz. If a measurement is to be made using only one signal frequency, the signal frequency shall be the chosen reference frequency. If measurements are to be made at a number of different frequencies, the chosen reference frequency shall be included, the other frequenci

41、es being so chosen that the results of the measurements give an adequate representation of the behaviour of the characteristics over the whole of the effective frequency range. If measurements are to be made in frequency bands of constant relative bandwidth, preference shall be given to the one-octa

42、ve and one-third octave bands mentioned in Sub-clause6.2.3.BS 6840-1:1987 2 BSI 06-1999 4 Quantities to be specified and their accuracy Unless otherwise stated, the values of voltage, current, sound pressure, etc.,mentioned in this standard are assumed to be r.m.s. quantities. For most purposes it i

43、s sufficient to measure electrical quantities with an accuracy of 0.15dB and acoustical quantities with an accuracy of 1dB. The accuracy of measurement required depends only on the purpose for which the results are to be used. 5 Marking and symbols for marking 5.1 Marking Terminals and controls shal

44、l be adequately marked to give information regarding their function, characteristics and polarity. The marking shall be such that it must be possible to adjust the controls and to identify their positions with sufficient accuracy in connection with the information given in the user instructions. 5.2

45、 Symbols for marking Marking should preferably be composed of letter symbols, signs, numbers and colours, which are internationally intelligible. Reference is made to IEC Publication27, IEC Publication617: Graphical Symbols for Diagrams, and IECPublication417:Graphical Symbols for Use on Equipment.

46、Index, Survey and Compilation of the Single Sheets. Markings not included in the above-mentioned standards shall be clearly explained in the user instructions. 6 Filters, weighting curves and meters for noise specification and measurement A specification of noise or signal-to-noise ratio shall refer

47、 to noise measured by one of the following methods: 6.1 Wide-band measurement The filter shall be a band-pass filter having a frequency response within the limits shown in Figure 5, page9. (This is identical to the wide-band filter specification in CCIR Recommendation468-3.) A band-pass filter which

48、 has a substantially constant transmission factor between22.4 Hz and22.4kHz, decreasing outside this frequency band at the rates specified for octave-band filters having mid-band frequencies of31.5Hz and16000Hz specified in IEC Publication225: Octave, Half-octave and Third-octave Band Filters intend

49、ed for the Analysis of Sound and Vibrations, has a response falling within the limits of this specification. NOTECare should be taken when there may be strong signals just above or below the band-limits since in this case the results will depend, to some degree, on the individual frequency response of the filter actually used. 6.2 Weighted measurements 6.2.1 Noise (A-weighting) or signal-to-noise (A-weighting) ratio The filter used shall have A-weighting characteristics with toleran
