The organization that allegedly controls the radio spectrum is SATRA

Hi Rich,
A question. If you bridge the barrier between TNV and earth, for the
purposes of test 6A, I assume the test voltage is the upper limit of the

Sounds to me like someone has too much time on their hands. On the face of

like this start appearing in safety standards. Maybe we should just ban all

Under the old Part 68 regime, there was a thing called a "Limited field

prototypes and do early field trials while you were waiting for the FCC to

Hi All,
As we all know, I hope, EN55024 came into effect on July 1, 2001, and superceded
EN50082-1. If a product was legally being sold in the EU, before that date, and
was compliant to EN50082-1, does the product need to be re-tested to EN55024 to
be sold after that date, if there are no changes

Doug,
You might want to look at a paper that was presented at the Montreal IEEE
EMC Symposium by HP on measurements that they made on a table when starting
to test above 1 GHz. As you know, the FCC (ANSI C63.4) and CISPR 22
requirements simply call out that the table should be non-conducting.
