The telephone Consumer Act of 1991 has a requirement for fax Branding. In order to educate the customer we put a statement in our user manual that the time,date and sender ID is required on each transmitted page.
My question is for Europe, does a similar law exist there? Any comments are appreciated. A second question not relating to this Act is on the new FCC part 68 type B surge. I would like to share some design ideas on how to pass this test. My problem was that the 2 ferrite beads (200mA) on T&R and Fuse (250mA) would open on application of this surge. I have fixed this by using 1A ferrite beads and a 1.5A time delay fuse. The MOV is after the ferrites and fuse, I have considered moving right at the demarcation point, any comments on that!! I also have to repeat the UL1950 Clause 6 test as I do not have V0 rated enclosure around my telco circuit, I expect that to pass. RCIC - http://www.rcic.com Regulatory Compliance Information Center
