Why EMC cannot be the “final step”. Design risks in defence electronics April 21, 2026 In many projects, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is still treated as a final-stage verification step. In practice, this approach increasingly leads to delays, costly redesigns and errors that are difficult to eliminate — particularly in complex defence systems. As Dominik Kowalczyk, an explosion protection specialist at Dacpol, told Evertiq, EMC analysis should cover the entire lifecycle of a project — from concept to deployment. He also pointed out where signal integrity is most often lost and why the traditional approach to EMC is no longer keeping pace with growing system complexity.
