I think we can agree that the radiation from PLT-energized cables is not intentional. But 'intention' and 'actuality' are not the same. What matters for EMC is whether the installation actually radiates or not, regardless of whether it is intended to or not. What is it that is 'paved with good intentions'?(;-) -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
