All,

Keep in mind that Australia requires 240 VAC @ 50 Hz.
So you may want to test line conducted emissions at
that level to keep them happy too.

Brent, I have a sort of middle of the road approach for the FCC conducted
emissions testing: I use whatever mains voltage is available in the US,
which is usually 120V~/60Hz. For the CISPR 22 teests, I use a regulated
230V~/50Hz power source. Japanese conducted emissions should be tested at
100V~/50Hz (regulated).

All of my radiated emissions scans and immunity testing are performed
with input power of 230V~/50Hz.

These criteria seem to satisfy all parties concerned.
