Dear groups, My company is a manufacturer of equipment defined in EN55011 (CISPR 11) as Group 2, Class A products and a question has come up regarding the ISM frequencies that I am hoping you can clarify for us. Tables Ia and Ib of the standard list the fundamental ISM frequencies and their associated limits (or lack of). Since column 3 (column 2 of Ib) is titled "Maximum radiation limit", it has been thought by every compliance engineer in my company, that these forgiveness bands only apply to radiated emissions. However, paragraph 3.3 states that "... The limits for terminal voltages and radiation do not apply to these ISM frequencies ..."
It appears that there is a discrepancy in the language if these two references. So the question is this: ------------------------ Do the unrestricted limits for the ISM frequencies really apply to both radiated and conducted or to only radiated emissions? Any opinions or discussion on this would be greatly appreciated. -doug ================================= Douglas E.
