Charles, I applaud your integrity! You are right to insist on maximization of cable placement when performing emissions testing. The ANSI document does indeed call this out, and the cable placement, as well as the peripheral equipment placement, should be maximized, of course while staying within

When the standards changed to move the EUT and peripherals to the back edge of the test table, cable maximization was left mostly up to gravity with the cables being draped as they fell. Most test facilities do not go any further than that. I have seen OEMs that go so far as to do cable
