All, I have a customer whom makes a piece of laboratory equipment that consists of 4 parts, each part having its own power supply. The customer would like to claim that they sell a power strip with the system, and all four power cords plug into the strip and therefore only one set of power cord tests needs to be performed for Immunity. For Emissions it is clear per EN 55011 that each power cord must be tested for conducted emissions, for Immunity it gets a little less clear. Should each power cord be tested individually for EFT, Surge, CRFI and VDI, or can I use the customer supplied power strip and perform the testing once. Any guidance or references to clauses in standards is greatly appreciated.
