HI Ed, yep, I terminated the LISN port when I did the CP test. At 101 Amps per phase, I cant resistively load the network..... I was thinking that a network amalyser looking into the LISN port ( power disconnect outside the room ) would perhaps show something impedance wise. Facility power appears clean under no load. Cheers,
Derek. ----- Original Message ----- From: Price, Ed <mailto:[email protected]> To: Derek Walton <mailto:[email protected]> ; IEEE EMC Discussion Group <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 14, 2007 9:46 AM Subject: RE: Interaction between EUT and LISN and Wall filter Derek: Did you also replace the current probe with a 50-ohm termination, and do you then not get the hump? Next, did you try using a resistive load on the LISN's and see if the hump is there? Finally, do you still see a hump with just a resistive load and no LISN's? I would suspect either a facility power noise source or a resonance in the chamber powerline filters.

Between 10 kHz and 20 kHz we have developed a Hump in out profile that wasn't present at our last test lab. The hump is identical looking with a current probe on the input to and from the LISN, so I believe I'm seeing no isolation from the LISN between the EUT and room wall filter. So, I was curious if anyone has looked into the impedance of the power supply in a room from 10 kHz to say 100 kHz? I'm thinking that my EUT and the room filter may be interacting.... We have dismised other sources nearby and in the room. Thoughts anyone?
