The '80-80 rule' is actually standardized in CISPR 16-4-3/EN 55016-4-3 and 55022 just copies it (more or less). However, if you really have a series-production product and the applicable product standard doesn't mention the 80-80 rule, I think the current EMC Directive does not prohibit you applying it anyway; in the event of a query you would have to justify applying it. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
