The other team then perform a formal test in the products intended electromagnetic environment at the EMC Laboratories in Bristol.
What is EMC? EMC addresses the unintentional generation, propagation and reception of electromagnetic energy that may cause undesirable effects in equipment. We also cover the effects of external environments such as Lightning strikes, Electrostatic discharge and RF transmitters.
