In CISR16, it's only filters built in to the LISN that are included in the calibration. You can run a Z/F curve with the mains port open-circuit and then another with it short-circuit. If both are within tolerance, the filter is OK. But you DO have to check, because one or more of the filter capacitors might have failed. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
