Hi Bob

When you are in the "grey" zone with products in more than one product family, 
the normal procedure is to state
compliance to both categories by making a worst case test with requirements 
from both categories. The other way is to
declare in the manual that the product is limited only for industrial use.

The last solution is normally not good because who knows if customers are in 
industrial or light industrial areas.

Best regards,
