Nick: Here's what I've got on it... 1. Scope = "electronic equipment with control action on systems and processes such as generation, distribution, conversion and control of electrical energy".
2. It was apparently published in the OJ under the LVD. 3. It is mainly based on EN60664 (whatever that is).

Honest. -----Original Message----- From: Nick Williams [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 27, 2000 1:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: EN50178 question BSI's on-line and printed catalogues give the following information about the above standard: BS EN 50178:1998 Electronic equipment for use in power installations That's all it says, except a list of cross references as long as both your arms. Before I waste GBP56 of my hard earned cash on buying a copy just to see if it has any relevance to one of my client's projects, can someone give me a good idea of what this standard is really all about? Thanks for any help. Nick. ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
