I was taking a look at DO-160G recently, and have a question on the setup. So a current probe is used to both calibrate and measure the level of the induced transient. That level can be hundreds of amps. Why is the probe factor not taken into account? A 3 dB probe factor at 1 MHz would essentially double the required current for waveform three. I know there are some very smart people on these committees that wouldn't miss something like that. So what am I missing?
