Hi John:

You can also look at Annex F (F.2) for power levels and the resultant
requirements if your circuit is "Unlimited".

Also don't overlook 6.3.2, values in single fault conditions, and you may be
particularly interested in 6.3.2.3.

A minor point,  note that there is no definition for SELV in 61010, voltages
are hazardous, or not.

Hi

I have been searching through IEC 61010 for any requirements relating to
energy hazards
for accessible terminals, similar to those of IEC 60950 which have a limit
of 240 VA and 20 J available energy.

The only reference i can find in 61010 relates to electric shock in that
clause 6.3.1 limits available energy to 45 uC where SELV limits for voltage
and current are not met. This circuit does meet SELV voltage limits so this
requirement doesnt apply.

Can anyone point me to a reference in 61010 for energy hazards?

Thanks
