Thank you very much, John.
 
One more question:
What is the role of CISPR 16 series to CISPR family standards, such as CISPR
15?  For example, I though disturbance voltage measurement mentioned in CISPR
15 should follow CISPR 16-2-1.  From what I have learned from you, it seems
CISPR 16 series are independent to other CISPR standards.  Am I right?
 
Figure 6 and Figure 7 of CISPR 16-2-1 clearly specify vertical and horizontal
reference planes.

                        Based on these, my colleague insists groundplanes are 
not required when
perform measurement on relay switches and dimmers.  Do you agree with the
argument?
                        


                Well, 8.1.3 and Figure 5 apply, and I can't see any reference 
to a ground
plane. So your colleague APPEARS to be right. But I suspect that there is a
problem with the standard, because the AMN is always used with a ground plane.
                


        I have *unofficial* agreement that the current CISPR 15 does not call 
for a
ground plane in 8.1.3. However, this does seem to my colleagues to be an
error, and the standard may have to be amended.
