-------- Original Message -------- Subject: User Warning Signal Words List-Post: [email protected] Date: Wed, 07 Nov 2001 13:33:48 +0000 From: "Nick Martin" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Hi List Can anyone help with the following regarding warnings to users and signal words User warnings normally use one of three signal words CAUTION, WARNING, DANGER. I believe that each of these increases the severity of the warning. Can anyone define any specific criteria for when a "caution" becomes a "warning" and ideally point to an IEC or other specification that provides guidelines on the use of these words? Or is my belief incorrect and the words are inter-changeable? thanks in advance for any answers Nick Martin Serco Test Systems ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
