Can >anybody suggest how to achieve these measurements? EN 50217 does address this, and recommends using the method in CISPR 18-2. This is not a standard you (or practically anyone) is likely to have. I don't have Amendment 2, but the edition I have doesn't adequately address the problem of ambient noise levels, in paragraph 3 of clause 1.3.11. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
