Remarks PT SOUTH QUALITY SAS (Buenos Aires, Argentina) operates this interlaboratory comparison scheme in accordance with ISO/IEC 17043. Statistical evaluation of results follows ISO 13528. The scheme is intended for laboratories that perform electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission and immunity testing of household appliances, multimedia equipment, lighting equipment, automotive components and power equipment, including laboratories working under ISO/IEC 17025. Since its launch in 2010, the scheme has been organised annually without interruption. Over this period, more than 40 laboratories from 30 countries have participated, making each ILC exercise part of a long-standing series of comparable international results.
