Re: IEC 61000-3-2 -3-3

2000-11-29 Thread Ralph Cameron

My comments re Woodgate   was confsuing. What I meant to say was the
transformerless SMPS s appear to generate considerable nosie as opposed to
the passive transformer. Is anyone concerned about this noise?

 J.M.Woodgate's comments are very appropriate to identify where all the
 conducted noise is coming from in consumer residences but does nothing to
 mitigate the problem. The unfiltered SMPS used for replacement of the old
 reliable non noise generating physical transformer contributes little or
no
 noise.

 As soon as some of these high efficiency noise (e.g. Halogen /Xenon
 lighting supplies) generators start  truning the Samrt House  concept
into
 a Haunted House, watch the brickbats fly.

 p.s. That goes for the  trasnformerless supplies in treadmills too.
