Hello Group, I was recently speaking with one of my fellow employees who previously worked at Dell Computer. He claims that at Dell they had to remove a large amount of their grn/yel ground wire from products and replace it with wire that is marked in some way with its loading capacity. Things like resistance, maximum voltage. maximum current marked directly on the wire. He also says this is a North American requirement.
My company produces industrial power supplies for thin film processing equipment and I have never run across a requirement like this. Is there someone who can tell me what the scoop is? I have a feeling that this may have been a special case and a test lab requirement rather than a standards issue. Thanks, Doug Powell Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. Ft. Collins Colorado USA
