Maybe a slightly silly question, but I want to hear your opinions.
IEC 61000-4-4:2012 clause 7.3.1 says:
Floor standing EUTs ... shall be placed on a ground reference
plane and shall be insulated from it by an insulating support
with a thickness of (0,1 +/- 0,05) m including non conductive
roller/casters (see Figure 11).
It's known that this clause is inadequate and it will be reviewed, but
probably not very swiftly. It has been pointed out that the capacitance
between the EUT and the ground plane depends on the permittivity of the
support, which is not controlled.
