While this is belaboring the issue and, other than if I happen to run across any relevant standards references, it should be noted that most new and many updated standards we have to deal with are written using SI as the primary and sometimes only units. Also, in most scientific and engineering

Dear Chuck and Peter, When there's no enforcement, ther's no will. Correct me if I am wrong. You may not get many enthusiastic responses because since 1997 the US governement gave up on all decades-long efforts to introduce metric system. Whether we like it or not, the SI comes into play

Re Peter Tarver's message yesterday on this subject: It warmed my heart to find that there IS some coordination between these standards organizations, at least sometimes! When I read Peter's memo I wondered if there might be some agreement between the IEC standards and the IEEE/ASTM standard

CISPR 16-4: Uncertainty in EMC Measurements has just been published. This should give you all the ammunition you need to deal with the issue of how to include NSA in your uncertainty budget. If 16-4 is not yet available from the IEC, CISPR/A/355/FDIS is the draft standard upon which it is

KC, You don't mention what organization/standard that you are undergoing an audit with, I'll assume ISO 17025. I think you are correct that it would be very difficult if not impossible to meet the requirements when you add in uncertainty that takes into account the receiver, antennas,

Look at CISPR 16-1, Annex M for insight. This provides the basis for the +/- 4 dB. 3 of the 4 dB is already measurement uncertainty with the remaining 1 dB as site imperfections. However this MU does not include the signal source or the repeatibility of the test procedure. Bob Heller 3M

Hi all I just got a tough question from our auditor about NSA and uncertainty. He asked if we will include the uncertainty into our Normalized Site Attenuation measurement or not. If we include the uncertainty of NSA measurement, it is impossible for us to ensure it is within the +/- 4dB

I don't know the particulars, but that line is old. It is the Stoddart/Singer/Ailtech/Eaton/Tegam/ETS line. The basic 91550-1 model dates back at least 50 years, so you are not looking at new technology, although I expect that ferrite vendors have changed over the years. I used to be the
