Hi Ian,

 

Could you turn the LISN around to measure the noise on the feed for your
chamber? Might give you some useful pointers.

 

All the best

James

Hello John.

 

That will be quite difficult as the screened room is in the centre of the
building with many different types of equipment adding to the overall mains
noise.

 

Regards;

Have you tried to isolate the original source of the noise - and then to
supress that?

Subject: [PSES] Mains Conducted rf emissions measurements

 

Dear Colleagues.

 

I am setting up a mains conducted rf emissions measuring system and am
experiencing excessive mains noise when connecting the LISN to the 240V wall
socket. The noise affects my measurements between 150kHz to 400KHz. Beyond
that and up to 30MHz I am satisfied. Is there a way of filtering out this
noise. I have tried various EMI mains filter modules but none appear to
attenuate enough at that frequency band. They are very good at attenuating
frequencies beyond 1MHz. I have tried inserting an isolation transformer
before the LISN but this appears to distort the measurements.

Can anyone recommend a solution?

 

Many thanks in advance.
