Far be it from me to nit-pick, but to say in a standard that the tests specified in this annex SHOULD be carried out by the manufacturer on each luminaire after production, doesn't sound like a normative requirement. They should have used SHALL. But maybe it is an informative annex ? Regards,

Jon, EN55024 uses the IEC 61000-4-x series to define the test set-up. I had a quick look at 61000-4-6 and could only find a reference to a handset. This, in turn refers to IEC CISPR 16-1 for the details of the artificial hand. The telephony sections of EN55024 are based on a standard POTS or ISDN
