I no longer sit on the IEC working group responsible; however, they WERE working on amendments that would expand the scope to 3GHz and require tests between 1 and 2GHz in specific wireless telecom bands. Don't know where this stands right now and I haven't seen any drafts from that working group lately. The group is Working Group 10 under SC 77B of the IEC...

The product family immunity standard (e.g., EN55024 for ITE) is the standard whereby you have to meet the requirements. If no product family exists for your product(s), then the generic family immunity standard (EN50082-1 or EN50082-2 depending on intended operating environment) is applied. If you don't have the product or generic family immunity standard that pertains to your product(s), then IMHO, get it. I hope this helps.

I have heard that possibly the 1999 version states testing up to 2 GHz. Is this just a rumor? What is the likelihood that testing past 1 GHz will be required for this test?
