PPK ampere mode high peaks

[maya_sa]

Hello, 
I ran the nrfconnect (ver 3.7.1) in Power Profiler (ver 3.1.3) in BLE advertising.

When I run the source mode on 3000V I get normal peaks  (20mA), however when I run the Ampere mode with the same voltage I see peaks of 45-50 mA.

On a different PC (same PS and cable , same nrf version and power profiler version) both Ampere mode and Source mode show the same values (as they should).

Thank you for your help.

Need to ask you for one more thing, could you click on the save/export and save as PPK and csv and share both.
