> Vote scanning and counting equipment for paper-based systems, and all DRE equipment, shall be able to withstand, without disruption of normal operation or loss of data, electrical fast transients of: a. +2 kV and −2 kV on External Power lines (both AC and DC) b. +1 kV and −1 kV on Input/Output lines(signal, data, and control lines) longer than 3 meters c. Repetition Rate for all transient pulses will be 100 kHz The real question seems to be, they apparently have all these stringent electrical engineering requirements set up in the standards, ones that seem to be made with detailed input from a professional electrical engineer, ones that can only be properly understood and tested by someone with electrical engineering knowledge. So why did all these requirements on electrical engineering get into the standards, but requirements on software security did not?
