Disposition 1009/98 requires that all electrical products under 50V comply
with the requirements of Resolution 92/98 effective 18 August 1999. A
Declaration of Conformity will be required for the first year after which
the second phase (test certificate) of Resolution 92/98 will be effective. 

For all other electronic equipment, Disposition 499/99 extends the deadline
for the second phase to 18 September 1999.

A summary of the requirements in English is available at

        Argentina's resolution 92/98 is now in its second phase of
application, and
        since 18 September all products powered from more than 50V now need
either
        formal safety certification (eg by IRAM) or an approved Argentine
conformity
        mark before they can be imported into Argentina.

        Certification can be to any appropriate IEC safety standard,
including 60959,
        61010-1, 60335, etc. You should check which standard applies to your
product.

        There has been talk of a disposition concerning industrial
equipment, but only
        where the power is supplied by other than the standard domestic
mains system.
        You should contact IRAM concerning this: try Osvaldo Petroni there

        Subject:  Argentina






             Can anyone shed some light on the recent Argentina requirement
which
             mandates all electrical apparatus be evaluated to IEC 60950?
Would
             industrial apparatus also require evaluation to this verses IEC
61010?
             I believe this may be documented in Resolution 92, has this
finally go
             into affect?

             Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
