It is worth noting that about one hundred years ago, in the complete absence of EMC departments or even acknowledgement of such a discipline, electrical engineers worked out what was necessary to adequately suppress ignition noise to allow for AM BCB reception in automobiles. Whereas today, Tesla for instance, with a full-up EMC department, punted on AM BCB reception in their electric vehicles.

The FCC agreed since any interference would be obvious and the FCC has the primary interference clause, thou shall not interfere, or they would impose Federal regs on the auto industry. If has worked well, but has not in the US, come up with a common set of auto EMC standards. So for Auto EMC, map out the "big three" requirements and stay under the composite levels. Aside: anyone remember non=resistive plugs and copper spark plug wires and radios with tubes that used a vibrator (old style) to generate AC to then generate the correct DC needed to run the radio ? And listening to AM with cars around you ? Buzzzing noise ! ps. The EU is quite different. - Bill Owsley EMC First LLC (Jan 2022) On Friday, December 17, 2021, 10:52:58 AM EST, Ken Javor <[email protected]> wrote: CISPR 25 is used for equipment-level emissions (CE & RE). This is for the purpose of protecting on-board radio reception and has nothing to do with the FCC. ISO 11452-X provide a variety of immunity requirements. And, as noted previously, various OEMS have their own internal requirements. The only FCC overview of any of this concerns SAE J551, where they measure vehicle-level emissions at ten meters separation from the vehicle, for the protection of roadside licensed broadcast receivers.

Is there an equivalent set of vehicle EMC standards for the US? Presumably CFR47 Part 15 applies to unintentional and intentional radiators as well?
