I was thinking only that people who have had my course not reply because they should already know. Will post the answer discussion later tomorrow. I have really enjoyed the replies and learned from them. And you are right. Ground lead parasitic inductance plays a major part.

You might be measuring in the middle of this transmission line. If the input impedance selected on channel A of your oscilloscope is f.e 50 ohm and the other input channel has 1Mohm input impedance selected, you will measure a different voltage at this particular point (as the measured signal is the sum of the direct wave+ reflected wave on this transmission). So far, my guess 😉 Greetings, Bart Van: Doug Smith [ mailto:d...@emcesd.com] [d...@emcesd.com]] Verzonden: vrijdag 26 januari 2018 23:50 Aan: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Onderwerp: [PSES] Measurement dilema Hi All, Can you explain the result in this video I just made? Scope plots of the same two nodes are completely different. Probes and scope are operating normally, no problem with the equipment itself. If you have been to my seminars you know the answer, please do not post the answer unless you have not seen this experiment until now. Hint 1: There are no EM fields radiating from the shielded box affecting the probes. Hint 2: There are no active components inside the box. https://youtu.be/qj-HBFMEJiY Doug - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
