Bruce is proposing increasing the allowance for 3-wire connected products to 3.5 mA (as allowed in ITE standards) from the presently allowed A-V Equipment leakage current of 0.5 mA. He will also distribute a survey to provide for the assessment of leakage current levels presently exhibited by products.
