Barbara,

My EMC days ended about seven years ago, but I may be able to help.
All EUTs being evaluated for EMC compliance must usually be tested as
part of the system in which they will be used.  Examples:

-  PCs must be tested with kybds, mice, monitor, printer, .....
-  printers must be tested with PC, monitor, ......

Therefore, an option intended to operate from host power must be tested
as a complete system.  Therefore, the answer to your question is 'yes'.

Subject:  EN 55022 Conducted Emissions




I have had an inquiry that I am not sure of the answer and I was hoping that
someone could provide me with an answer.

If an EUT is DC powered device (i.e., a video card, internal modem, etc.),
deriving its power from a host's power supply (i.e., a video card, internal
modem, etc.) would the conducted emission specified in EN 55022 be performed
on the power leads for the host as part of the test program for the EUT.

Thank you for your assistance.
