Hello All, Have heard from some sources that surge-suppressors (Varistors, MOVs, Tranzorbs, etc) are not allowed between Line to Ground, in EN 60950 products, except perhaps for permanently mounted, wired-in equipment. The concern seems to be that of increased leakage-current over time.
Looking for authoritive substantiation (citations - please) for allowance or disallowance of surge-surpressors from Line to Ground under European compliance considerations. And, if you know of any surge-suppressors which bear European "approvals" for this application (line-ground), I'd appreciate that info too. ThanX, Art Michael Int'l Product Safety News A.E.
