Ron raised my curiosity so I looked at the single CB report which we have and 
it only makes reference to IEC950 with no reference to EN60950.

A CB report/certificate may not only refer to an IEC standard.

In the CB reports that I am familiar with, they all incorporate IEC950 and 
EN60950 into the same report along with the respective amendments in force 
at the time. The CB certificates indicate the standard(s) applied and which 
national deviations were considered/evaluated. It's important to note here 
that these reports came from 2 different NCBs.

However, if a CB report evaluation is only to IEC950, then a separate 
EN60950 evaluation may be required. But if so, so much for the one-stop 
shopping approach as the CB Scheme touts.

Comments from anyone with CB experience for clarification, especially the 
NCBs?
