The equipment is floor-standing. How is the portion from the floor up
to 80 cm above the floor properly illuminated in the test facility?
The standard deals with this as well. But we shouldn't really be
distributing this:
7.2 Arrangement of floor-standing equipment
Floor-standing equipment should be mounted on a non-conductive support
0,05 m to 0,15 m above the supporting plane. The use of non-conductive
supports prevents accidental earthing of the EUT and distortion of the
field. To ensure the latter, the support shall be bulk non-conducting,
rather than an insulating coating on a metallic structure.
Floor-standing equipment which is capable of being stood on a
non-conductive 0,8 m high platform, i.e. equipment which is not too
large or heavy, or where its elevation would not create a safety hazard,
may be so arranged. This variation in the standard method of test shall
be recorded in the test report.
NOTE Non-conductive rollers may be used as the 0,05 m to 0,15 m support.
The equipment is then connected to power and signal wires according to
relevant installation instructions.
