At a former employer, we finally ended up putting resistive load banks in computer chassis' (as shielding) for testing power supplies. But we found that power supplies can fail at full load from their own emissions, and later, installed in working equipment at lower loads, due to passing through b

When I managed both EMC and power supply design groups in the '80's, I found the many tech magazine ads for open frame power supplies quite amusing. These always stated that the power supplies met FCC and other EMI requirements. How were these tested? A dummy d.c. load does NO

Hi all, 1. We plan to EMC test a stand alone power supply (PS1) 2. We have an IT product which has passed the EMC test. 3. We want to remove the current power supply in the IT product and replace it with the power supply (PS1) after it has passed the EMC tests. If power supply (PS1) pass the EM
