Keep in mind that some of these tests call for a rather specific table and floor with grounded planes and very specific distances. When I've seen this done properly, it was an extensive (and possibly expensive) job. Look carefully at the EN documents, particularly the appendices which typically describe the setups. Bringing in a good EMC consultant might save you a lot of head-scratching.

Please note that we are not planning to perform Radiated Emissions and Radiated Immunity testing.
