I really want to understand how to properly determine my Measurement Uncertainty (MU) for the tests our EMC lab performs starting with Radiated Emissions.
I understand how to do the math but I’m having a hard time nailing down the Contributions and how to obtain, determine, or test for their proper values. I have been working with the UKAS Lab34 document which is very vague when it comes to this information. I have seen the MU reports from a couple other labs and I noticed the Contributions and descriptions are not the same. I would think for the MU to have meaning, all labs would have to obtain the information the same way. So what document or documents describes the nuts-and-bolts to the Contributions? Which ones do you consider and how do you determine their value? If testing is required, how is the test performed? Is this information in the CISPR 16-4-2 document? Do I also need sections 4-1 and 4-4? What other sections do I need to get? I’ll probably have more questions later, but for now I better get the proper docs and do some more studying.
