Hello experts,
I note that EN 60335-1 (household and similar appliances) specifically calls up EMC immunity tests in clause 19.11.4 where the controls for the EUT are set in the "off position" and a set of immunity tests are applied. For something that controls a heating element, I can see why this would be a concern. A couple of questions / thoughts: * It sounds like this at least doubles the amount of immunity testing required - one with the EUT "on" and one with it "off". Would that be how you read this? * Are there any other safety standards that explicitly call up EMC tests within them like this one does? This is the first one I've come across where this is the case but I'm not very familiar with safety standards in general.
