Amund, I am going to be simplistic here (excuse me if I left something out) .. . . primarily the differences are with mains voltage rating and the tests that are involved (if you have 'universal input' they will test the product - like temperature testing- at various input voltages) and national deviations. The rest of the text (construction, insulation, wiring, etc.) is nearly identical. When I have my product evaluated to UL 1950, I have them include EN60950 at the same time. It saves a lot of money.
Hope this helps.
