What is an E-field Probe Calibration?
An E-field probe (Electric Field Probe) is a specific instrument which measures electric field strength in a broad range of environments. E-field probes are used across aerospace, defense, telecom/aerospace and medical device testing environments, along with any other testing platform with EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) controlled applications. Like some other precision measurement instruments, E-field probes can drift over time, so can require a solution for regular calibration to ensure the measurements are appropriate.
Why is E-field Probe Calibration Important
Calibrating an E-field probe ensures:- Accurate electric field measurements
- Compliance with industry and regulatory standards (like CISPR, MIL-STD, ISO, etc.)
- Minimized risk of test errors or product non-compliance
- Improved reliability and credibility of test data
At BQuest Labs, we offer traceable E-field probe calibration services backed by national and international standards. Our advanced calibration methods ensure your instruments are performing within specified tolerances and operating at optimal efficiency.
Our Electric Probe Calibration Process
At BQuest Labs, we follow a meticulous and standardized process to calibrate E-field probes:- Initial Inspection & Functional Testing We start by performing a thorough visual inspection and functional check to identify any physical damage or performance issues.
- Setup in Anechoic or TEM Environment Calibration is performed in a controlled electromagnetic environment such as a TEM cell or anechoic chamber to eliminate external interference.
- Application of Known Field Strengths Known electric field strengths are applied across multiple frequencies and probe orientations. This allows for calibration across the probe's entire operational bandwidth.
- Comparison with Reference Standards The probe’s output is compared with highly accurate reference field sensors traceable to national metrology institutes (e.g., NIST).
- Adjustment & Certification If deviations are found, adjustments are made, and a comprehensive calibration certificate is issued, detailing the measurement results and uncertainties.

E-Field Probe Testing: What We Measure
Our E-Field Probe testing services measure electromagnetic fields emitted by devices or components in a controlled environment. The probes are used for both radiated emission and radiated immunity tests, ensuring that your products meet industry-specific regulations.1. Radiated Emissions Testing
- Frequency Range: 1 MHz to 18 GHz
- Field Strength: 2 V/m to 100 V/m
- Application: Ideal for assessing the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of consumer electronics, automotive components, and communication devices.
2. Radiated Immunity Testing
- Frequency Range: 1 MHz to 18 GHz
- Field Strength: 2 V/m to 100 V/m
- Application: Simulates electromagnetic interference (EMI) that may affect the device’s operation in real-world conditions, ensuring durability and resilience.
3. TEM Cell Testing
- Frequency Range: 80 MHz to 400 MHz
- Field Strength: 2 V/m to 500 V/m
- o Application: Used for higher field strength tests, often required for automotive electronics or military-grade devices. The TEM cell enables uniform and precise electromagnetic field generation for testing large or sensitive DUTs (Device Under Test).
