For the upper end; conducted measurements end where radiated emissions start.  Back in the mists of time someone decided that a ten meter wavelength was something that could radiated fairly efficiently from cables, so radiated emissions sounded like more of a risk to telecommunications.

The 150 kHz number is more directly related to licensed services.  The limit was 450 kHz in the US until harmonization with the European measurements.  The US limit was based on protection of the AM broadcast band.  The European Longwave AM band extends down to 148kHz, so I assume they simply rounded up to 150 kHz.

From a practical standpoint, if you stick with a 50 uH LISN, it starts to deviate from 50 ohms quite a bit as you go lower.

Hope that helps.

Respectfully,

Hello group,

Does anyone know why the conducted emissions for ITE products starts at 150KHz and end at 30MHz? Why not start at 120KHz or 190KHz. Why finish at 30 and not 40MHz?

Thank you
Peter
