I showed a film clip of failing the fire resistance test at the last Verizon NEBS Symposium ( www.verizonnebs.com <http://www.verizonnebs.com/> ), you're right, it was a big hit. Before I showed it, I asked the audience "How many of you played with fire when you were a kid?". At least 2/3 of the audience raised their hands. Not too surprising from a group of compliance professionals who burn stuff for a living. The fire resistance test is definitely my all time favorite compliance test - the seismic test is a close second.

Nothing like burning your equipment to a crisp with a 1 foot high flame from a line burner, for good entertainment :) Bob Wilson TIR Systems Ltd.

You can view it at: http://www.evaluationengineering.com/archive/articles/0502emc.htm <http://www.evaluationengineering.com/archive/articles/0502emc.htm> The article details the steps we took at General Bandwidth to pass NEBS testing our first time out. There's a pretty good resource section at the end that's not in the print copy. I hope the group finds it useful. Best regards,
