Hi Brian:
Be careful that the customers’ requests are not just asking by rote.
Way back when, we had customers asking about UV emissions from a crt. Most
glass is a good attenuator of UV, but the asking (non-technical) customers were
asking because someone in their company asked them to ask. These customers
were satisfied with a non-technical answer that said that no UV came through
the glass rather than a measure of the UV.
Perhaps your customers are of this sort? Perhaps a simple answer as you said
in your message will satisfy your customers. If not, they will come back to
you with a request for data.
Good luck, and stay safe!
Rich

When do you know if a product needs to be tested to these standards or not?
What requires this testing? Is there a criteria that can be used? Does the
SCOPE of these standards make it clear if and when the standards need to be
applied to a product? We have had customers request it but most electronic
equipment doesn't put out enough magnetic or electromagnetic fields to even
make it onto the graph? Seems like a waste of time for most electronics unless
they incorporate high current or high power RF transmitters.
