Hello Kevin, I believe you need to look into your end-product standard for the exact requirement. For instance, UL 60950-1/CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1 (First or Second Edition), Annex P.1, subclause 2.7 requires those items that act as circuit breakers, circuit breakers and supplementary protectors,

I did find the generic statement. What I am trying to establish is that it is ok to have a 15 VA device without a fire enclosure be allowed to connect to a device powered by LPS that is 15 VA. The bridge appears to be missing... Don 561 912 6440 From: emc-p...@ieee.org

The following link has a good list of regulations for power supply efficiency. http://www.efficientpowersupplies.org/policies.asp The Federal requirements basically match the California requirements. California has been mandating more efficiency for external supplies for a while. The Federal
