NO! Because the EMCD operates exclusively at product level, the use of
external mitigation does not permit conformity. The present
IEC/EN61000-3-2 requires products to conform in a stand-alone
configuration, with no external aids. This is one of the major points of
contention at present in the discussions leading to the Second Edition
of IEC/EN61000-3-2.
