John, The PSU would not require independent TS001 testing. You are correct in that if equipment has a capability to connect to a public telecommunications network in Australia that equipment generally requires TS001 compliance and testing.
An Example A server or router which has the capability to house several cards (some may be LAN cards etc and some may be cards which provide connection to a public network). The requirements would be: a) for the server/router "host" box - Compliance with EMC and EMR requirements (see www.aca.gov.au) - Must "be safe" as described in Australian Trade Practice laws and Electrical Regulations of Australia States (provinces) etc NOTE: For ITE equipment being "safe" generally equates to compliance with AS/NZS 3260 (or IEC60950 + Australian deviations); b) for cards providing connection to a public network - Comply with EMC and EMR requirements (see www.aca.gov.au) - Comply with Telecommunications requirements - this would include TS001 in most cases + various other ACA interworking standards (see www.aca.gov.au - Telecommunications Labelling Notice, Schedule #1) NOTE: TS001 testing would normally be carried out with card in situ in the server/router box Hope this helps.
