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.
Happy Holidays, Craig Hensley Iomega Corp. Roy, UT >>> "William D'Orazio" <[email protected]> 12/21/00 08:00AM >>> 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, <<...>> William D'Orazio CAE Electronics Ltd.
