Thanks, Jim. It now makes more sense. Also, thanks for pointing out the ESD, radiated immunity, electrical safety and bonding/grounding, eventually I would have seen it. Reading Issue 3 carefully is an understatement. Thanks. Richard
From: JIM WIESE [mailto:jim.wi...@adtran.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 4:52 PM To: Georgerian, Richard; IEEE emc-pstc Subject: RE: GR-1089 Issue 3: Table B-1, missing radiated requirement? Richard, It was not an oversight. Appendix B now relates to Ports, rather than equipment in general. The first paragraph of Appendix B in issue 3 tries to explain this. Since conducted emissions are measured on ports, it is addressed in the table. Radiated emissions always apply whether the equipment has ports or not (i.e. an microwave radio, or non-twisted pair or non coax ports). Thus this test is not addressed in the table as it always applies. This is true for ESD, Radiated Immunity, electrical safety and bonding/grounding as well (they do not appear in the table either). As a side note, when we re-wrote GR-1089-CORE issue 3, there are a lot of clarifications and conceptual changes that are buried in the text. As the caution in section 1.6 states, "This re-issue of GR contains new criteria, extensive structural revisions, and clarifications in test procedures. Readers are urged to review this GR carefully". This is due to the tremendous number of subtle or minor changes which may have a significant impact on the testing process. It is not perfect, but it is a substantial improvement over issue 2.
