Bob,
Normally one should test to cover the country voltage, lucky EU has a
harmonized single supply of 230 Vac, 50 Hz (single phase). Otherwise, your
test reports will be questioned by the authorities when they do a market
surveillance or by an importer who takes on the responsibility. This is true
for any country; for example Japan testing should be done at either 100 Vac or
200 Vac 50 and 60 Hz and S Korea at 220 V, 60 Hz.
Some engineering judgement can be made to run some of the tests at a different
voltage and frequency, but the laboratory should record this in the test report
Best Regards

Is it OK to run EN 55015 or any other European test at 120 volts AC, 60
Hz?
Is there a reference to the input power required by an EN?
