Wendy,
please see my earlier comment. The table dimensions are NOMINAL. This is NOT
cast in stone.
The deficiency is Bogus.
Sincerely,
Derek Walton.

Wendy,
When I look for an accredited ANSI C63.4 laboratory, I expect the
laboratory
has the facility as stated in the standard, including a standard size of the
table as defined in the standard. For this reason, unless the accreditation
certificate bears a restriction note, I support the auditor's comment.
From the other point of view, many manufacturers' laboratories are for
internal use only, including my employer's. For this reason, the auditor may
be willing to accept the smaller size of the table. The question is how to
determine if the laboratory is for internal use only (for testing certain type
of products). An example is Alcatel-Lucent's EMC laboratory in New Jersey,
USA. It opens to the general public.
With regards,
Grace

Dear Experts,
Recently my company went through the first ISO17025 audit. We
have a table
smaller than the standard requirement of 1.5m x 1m since our products are
small, typically 10cm x 10cm x 10cm. The height of our table was 0.8m. The
auditor wanted us to change the table size to follow the standard.
What does it matter since we never use the extra space on the
table? I do
agree we must keep to the height requirement since the floor is a ground plane
and thus it sets a fixed capacitance to the EUT and also controls the lengths
of any attached cables.
Can we reject or challenge the auditor's request? Has anyone
experience the
same situation?
