Thank you very much, Ken. After reading your comments, I did Google search using the word of pre-compliance. Pages 68-69 of an R&S presentation file ( http://www.rohde-schwarz.com.vn/file_15628/EMC_Precompliance_Solutions.pdf) provides some hints. The FSP (replaced by FSV) is a precompliance ins

While the "N" standards for National, enforcement of the NEC for non-workplaces is with the AHJs which generally aren't looking at consumer products unless they are integrated into new construction and part of permit inspection. I've not found any national enforcement of the NEC apart from OSHA

Since even radiated spurious emissions for FCC licensed radios is ERP/EIRP measurements, currently it would not matter a whole lot. Currently the only requirement to use CISPR 16 for analyzers for licensed devices is in TIA603 when TEM cells are used. However, for part 15 devices, where radi

Doug, Mike, Dave, and all, thank you for the information. Though most of you have already known this and it seems like basic information, this is exactly the kind of things a test lab might overlook and be doing wrong for years, or at least not in the most efficient way. I love this email group.

I believe CISPR16 is for EMC only. If it is for radio aspects not being spurious emissions, CISPR16 is not applicable. I do own a FSP and the test results obtained are very suitable for radio, and the EMC test results (with a pre-amp) do match our TEST receivers result very good and accuracy is
