ADVENT PLT ADE-200KIT Test Results
The Test Results from a Notified Body: ADVENT PLT ADE-200KIT
This page is dedicated to Advent who kindly decided to also make PLT equipment incapable of meeting the European Standards for Conducted Emissions.
It should be noted that at the time of writing, these are the 'Winners' for the highest level of pollution so far observed from a PLT device which has been tested to CISPR levels. Congratulations Advent!

SIGNIFICANT PEAKS
Amplitude relative to limit
Frequency Absolute Amplitude Test limit Detector
2.33945MHz 91.51dB 35.51dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
3.32250MHz 92.45dB 36.45dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
4.87955MHz 92.80dB 36.80dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
6.83315MHz 92.89dB 32.89dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
9.49065MHz 90.98dB 30.98dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
13.3619MHz 90.58dB 30.58dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
18.6799MHz 90.07dB 30.07dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
26.9110MHz 89.17dB 29.17dB CISPR "B" QP Quasi Peak
The above results are damning. With a peak at 43.5dB this equates to one device emitting the same level of interference as 22,387 barely legal devices.
