Not precisely equivalent, AFAIK.

More info needed on type of power supply or whether unit simply runs off 12
Vdc. A power converter will definitely do the trick, but obviously is not a
solution unless it is already part of the EUT.

it is the actual voltage effect on the "user" that is most important, and

Jim,
Yes and no.
Yes. Medical ultrasound equipment is explicitly included in the scope of
Part 18 under Section 18.107(f). I assume the logic is that RF circuits are
required to generate the ultrasound.
No. Section 18.121 excludes non-consumer medical ultrasound equipment,

The normal answer is to fit filters with bleeder resistors across the
Line-to-Neutral capacitor, which is the main culprit for shocks.
In fact, I would ALWAYS advocate these - having known of several cases where
people have picked up unplugged equipment, and then dropped it due to the

No connected cables. It was clearly a radiated test. Here is what we

alternative explanation:
It is an antenna induced limit like MIL-I-6181, but what throws me is the
arcane way (I think) they determine the antenna factor
Are there any connections, like earphone? The result look like the power clamp
