Susan, You may find one or more of the following requirments as well:
Signed and "sealed" statements pertaining to your ground continuity and hi-pot testing. Manual statement that the product must be unplugged to reduce power (watts) to zero. Polish law requires all unused ITE to be turned off at night. Some low end ITE do not have on/off switches as at rest power is only 3-5W. Manual statement if the on/off switch does not break both sides (phase and neutral) on line. Polish outlets are not always wired as intended. An inspection of your factory by PCBC inspector. Ours took two days, at our expense. etc..
