Specifies off-vehicle radiation source test methods and procedures for testing passenger cars and commercial vehicles.

This part of SAE J551 specifies off-vehicle radiation source test methods and procedures for testing passenger cars and commercial vehicles.Two methods for calibrating electromagnetic fields are defined in the document: a substitution method and a closed-loop method. The substitution method is the method most commonly used.
