Off-topic response. Grinding an axe. Clearly the network analyzer itself serves as a limit on the achievable uncertainty, but it should be much better than what is needed (+/-20% in the military world). That aside, consider that differential mode emissions tend to be low impedance relative to that of the LISN, and therefore act as voltage sources, whose amplitude doesn¹t correspond much to changes in LISN amplitude. Common mode emissions tend to be current sources and therefore common mode emission amplitudes track closely with changes in LISN impedance. But we don¹t measure these modes separately, but rather as vector sums on the phase conductor, and vector differences on neutral, so we have no idea what the effect of the LISN impedance on any particular emission measured actually is.

Does anyone happen to have a budget you could share with us? We will go through the exercise of calculating ourself but if there is one out there would appreciate it if you could share.
