Mike, I have in the past had UL/CSA hi-pot testing waived for the production line testing of the end product based on the specific method of installation of the power supply in the end product.

I've been asked why a routine hipot test is required on an end assembly computer when it uses a Listed power supply that has already been hipot tested. So far I don't like the way I've worded my response. Basically what I've said is that a power supply is approved as a component. The end safety of the device depends on the installation. Can anyone add some more beef to this statement. Thanks.
