Colleagues,

I am seeking your input.

Manufacturer A sells a complete, fully approved  (CE, FCC Part 15, UL, etc)
product (product A)
Manufacturer B makes a device (product B) that will plug into a connector in
product A
(actually inside product A's enclosure - like a 'daughter' module) as a
value added feature. 
There are no external interfaces on product B, and it is not accessible
unless product A is totally dismantled. Product B is intended/sold only for
use with product A,
and is otherwise useless.
The two products are sold independent of each other by the manufacturers to
'dealer/installers'. 
When the dealer/installer sells/installs product A, he can offer product B
as an option.

What are the regulatory requirements/manufacturer's responsibilities for
product B?
(est. 2-3 inches square, UL 94V-0 printed circuit board, tens of mA 12V DC,
no external interfaces.
On-board clock). 

Thoughts?
