Dear All But it must be understood for equipment that is intended to be left on all the time, the fact that you have "switch on transients" is not relevant..
So if the argument is, well what happens in a power cut ? 1. This is not an EMC problem, hence can not be controlled by the EMC directive. After all it is electromagnetic compatibility - not electrical compatibility. 2. These incidents happen very infrequently, so to burden industry which such a requirement is too one sided, what ever happened to shared responsibility ? 3. This is regulation/control of the power network not 89/336... So this test under these circumstances this test has little relevance....
