Hi Joe,

Not sure I've understood your question correctly. Are you asking

1) If there are further tests that need to be added to your list to complete
   the EMC requirements (excluding of course radiated emissions and immunity)
   or

2) What extra equipment you need to perform the tests you have
    already listed.

If 1), then I believe you have covered all the tests, assuming supply frequency
variations are captured in "Voltage fluctuations."

If 2), then following the standard should highlight the need for appropriate
ground planes, grounding connections, correct cable lengths and types of 
insulation where appropriate.

It might be an idea to establish clearly what your line impedance is when
you do the harmonic measurements.

Regards

- Chris

Subject:        Final EMC Testing In-House


Group,

We are planning to perform final EMC testing in-house for the following
tests per EN 61326:

EN 61000-4-2 ESD
EN 61000-4-4 Line Transients
EN 61000-4-5 Surge
EN 61000-4-6 Conducted Immunity
EN 61000-4-11   Voltage Interruptions
EN 61000-3-2 Harmonics
EN 61000-3-3 Voltage Fluctuations

With the exception of purchasing test equipment that meets the standards,
what else is required for us to perform final testing?  Please note that we
are not planning to perform Radiated Emissions and Radiated Immunity
testing.

Your help is appreciated

Joe Martin
