We just finished harmonics testing today. The lab did not have us plug everything into one strip. We had two AC devices which make up the system. Both were tested separately, not together! Hope you can get this straighten out! Good luck!

One of our products is sold as a system with several other non-connected products as well as a computer system and printer. We brought this product to a well known EMC Testing facility to perform Harmonics testing. They required that we plugged our product, as well as all of the peripheral devices, into a power strip and they then tested the complete system together for Harmonics. Obviously, it failed. Has anyone else had an EMC Lab make this request of testing the complete system? Is anyone aware of any document that requires system testing for Harmonics? All responses are appreciated.
