When the 'Repeatability' clause in EN61000-3-2:2000 (clause 6.3.2.1) is
applied, is the comparison value (reference value) the result from another
test run, or is it the test limit?

For example, the harmonic test limit is 300mA, and the values from two test
runs are 7.4mA and 13mA.

1) If the comparision value is from the other test run:
13mA-7.49mA
-----------*100=42.4%  (failing the test)
  13mA

2) If the comparison value is the test limit:
13mA-7.49mA
-----------*100=1.8%  (passing the test)
   300mA

Method 1 seems overly stringent, but I can't find anything in the standard
covering the method. Is this detail covered in another standard (like
61000-4-7?)
