IEC 61000-4-13 is an immunity test on the mains for harmonics and 
Interharmonics. It can be thought of as the inverse of IEC 61000-3-2. Instead 
of measuring emissions, you’re subjecting the EUT to potential harmonics on the 
mains caused by other equipment. In my experience it is rarely used outside of 
the power industry – nuclear plants, solar, etc.

For what might apply, if you want the European perspective look at the EMC 
directive’s OJ to find the appropriate product family standard.
https://ec.europa.eu/docsroom/documents/51314

Nearly all the product family standards reference the same basic immunity 
methods under 61000-4-x. PFSs vary in terms of levels, product setup and 
monitoring, and other details but use the base methods.
-4-2 – ESD
-4-3 – Radiated immunity
-4-4 – EFT/Burst
-4-5 – Surge
-4-6 – Conducted RF immunity
-4-8 – Magnetic field immunity
-4-11 – Voltage dips and interruptions

Good morning EMC experts,

Even though we're a provider to N. American markets, this has jumped up at me 
recently.

1.  A partner claims they want compliance to IEC 61000-4-13 (Part 3).

a.  this is limited to equipment 16A, right?
b.  what does the title refer to when it says " Mains Signalling at A.C. Power 
Port " ?

2.  Older standards (specially UL 2231-2) call out IEC 61000-4-3 for immunity 
testing, which I remember from {ahem} a while ago.
However, -4-3  isn't on the ANSI Webstore for IEC 61000 series standards - is 
it still active?

Which of the  IEC 61000-4-x series are most applicable to FCC / Class B  
residential equipment?

thanks all,

Colorado Brian
