Joshua: Re Japan, I didn't have much luck on the JEITA website. Can you give me a specific reference (standard name/number, URL, etc.)? Also, is there a list of what types of products this requirement applies to? Thanks,

Japan has a requirement under JEITA to test harmonics at 120V while using an impedance in line. I have heard that Australia and Korea are also moving in this direction. Taiwan follows the US for the most part and I have not heard anything in this arena. I am curious to hear the responses you get on this one. Good luck.
