Hi Steven The function of the ferrites to prevent noise to enter the site is just one side of the story. One equally important aspect is presenting a fixed Common Mode impedance (150 Ohm approx)to the interference current sources that drive the cables and to create a fixed radiating cable length. Both for reproducibility. One will definitely find less resonances due to cabling using the CISPR set up both down- and upwards as using the ANSI set up. Therefore I suggest to re test.

My opinion is that you should not have to repeat the test as the ferrites do not have any effect on what is happening in the room where the test is being performed. Just one mans opinion.
