When determining the field strength criterion per Electromagnetic Compatibility Advisory Bulletin EMCAB-2, what type of equipment describes devices often used in home entertainment systems, but not strictly speaking radio apparatus?

In the context of Electromagnetic Compatibility Advisory Bulletin EMCAB-2, non-radio devices connected to entertainment systems (like DVD players, audio amplifiers, and stereo speakers) are officially categorized as "associated equipment." These devices are not strictly "radio apparatus" because they are not intentionally designed to transmit or receive radio frequency signals. However, their wiring and circuits can still unintentionally act as antennas, picking up strong RF fields and experiencing interference. ISED uses the specific term "associated equipment" to outline the immunity criteria for these consumer electronics.
