Craig is correct - the UL1950 PAG 4.4.4-002 confirms this and adds, "IEC
TC74 is developing a proposal to clarity this issue."

There are slight differences in the test parameters for 94-5VA and 94-5VB
classified materials.  94-5VB materials allow for some relaxation on the
burn-through requirement.  This relaxation is considered acceptable for ITE.
According to UL, a Recognized Component material with either a 94-5VA or
94-5VB flammability rating is considered to meet the Class 5V material
flammability requirement.  This same interpretation should hold true for
material classified as 5V per EN69050.

Gents,

        I came across the following flammability rating UL 95-5VA and UL
94-5VB.  Is there a difference between these two rating and which one is
equivalent to the EN60950 classification 5V.

Thanks in advance,
