I had this same question: why doesn¹t the rf shut off when the door is opened? And a second one: why was it deemed worthy of publishing an article that a microwave oven interfered with data collection since 1988? Not something I¹d want to publicize...

If the RF generated inside the oven does not stop prior to the opening of the RF seal on the door, which testing is responsible to identify this problem, EMC or the Safety testing?
