Historically, when the defunct SC60C (concerned with MME for education) attempted to produce such a marking standard for their equipment, they were jumped on by the (now defunct) TC16, who proceeded to write 61293, but didn't 'jump on' the bigger boys, TC61, TC74 and TC92 to 'invite' them to ad

Hi Brian: We have three standards, one for the manual, and two for the product (the product standard and the general standard, IEC 61293). The mains ratings display differ among the standards. Your products must adhere to the product standard. If no marking requirements are in t

Second Response. It was pointed out to me that I didn't notice 'write a passing test report'. Well, I did, but in the European context f manufacturer self-certification.  A consultant assessing a product for another market could report that the product meets the standard BUT has emissions abov

I think it's quite a complex issue. The high emissions may be confined to quite narrow lobes, in which case the directional response of the receiving antenna matters, as that produces a spatial weighted average of the emission levels. There is, of course, nothing (technical, leaving economics

2019-02-01 Thread Bill Stumpf
Dear esteemed colleagues, CISPR 11 test procedures for making radiate emissions measurements at frequencies above 1GHz dictates that measurements are performed only at 30 degree intervals around the microwave appliance. From my own experience, this does not capture the highest emissions from th
