I've used the approach that one doesn't design compliance IN, one designs
non-compliance OUT. People who have the view that EMI reduction is a matter

Reason I ask is I had these questions posed to me by one of
our directors. He wants to learn about compliance. I was

Hi Scott,
I would first show your director the reference in the 2002 NEC Article 90.7
(Page 70-31) Examination of Equipment for Safety. It doesn't get specific
information as what you are asking for, but it does give the reason we have to
do what we do.
From that point on, I'm sure other
