Abstract :
Laboratory accreditation of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) laboratories has taken on increasing importance in the last several years. The International Standards Organization (ISO)/Draft International Standard (DIS) 17025 was released in the third quarter of 1998. This international standard will replace ISO/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) guide 25:1990 and European Norm (EN) 45001:1989. This paper examines the DIS from the technical perspective and compares/contrasts it with the two “standards” it replaces
