This approach compels good practice; some radiated susceptibility tests
approach oven level at peak power.

Subject: RE: Anechoic chambers: risks of energy leaking out
... An alternative view, would be to treat the fixed installation (the
EMC
Facility) and apply the limits of a well known EN for radiated emissions - at
10m from the screened room. If you have 10V/m in the screened room at 3m from
the antenna, that is 140dBuV/m at 3m, then it is easy to calculate the level
at, say, 16 or 20m from the antenna. The minimum screening that this approach
would give would be, say 140 - 20log(20m/3m)-37dBuV (for frequencies above
230MHz) = 140 - 16.5 -37 = 86.5dB. Below 230MHz, on the same basis, 93.5dB
attenuation would be required.
