I've had clients request testing the DC input just as we would for AC. It would seem to me that if you test the DC input and it passes, then there should be little question about compliance. Bob R.

We planned to recommend a particular class B power supply with this device. However the noise from our device appears to be pushing through the power supply and limiting the combo to class A. The problem area is in the 5-30 MHz. range. So now I need to resolve if the power supply by itself is the issue or if our device is the culprit. Radiated wise I can achieve class B with this combo.

We can nowhere find >that it is a requirement. Consider the Essential Requirements of the Directive, not what a particular standard wasn't written to cover. If your non-mains ports emit significantly, you should measure those emissions, and justify in your EMC assessment what limits you apply. It isn't clear why the type of power supply should affect whether non-mains port emissions are measured. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
