Claudio, Concerning Australia --------------------
The Australian standard AS3300 is the Australian equivalent standard to IEC 60335-1. The New Zealand standard NZS6300 is identical to AS3300. They are based on but not identical to IEC60335-1. An electronic copy of AS3300 can be purchased from Standards Australia at www.standards.com.au (use the search facility at top left corner of homepage and just insert the number 3300). Electrical safety approval may be required from one the Australian State/Territory Electrical Authorities depending upon the type and nature of the device. The mains power plug and cordage will probably require approval at least. For EMC requirements, see the ACA (Australian Communications Authority) web site at www.aca.gov.au/standards/index.htm. Look under "Electromagnetic Compatibility Arrangements (EMC)" heading.
