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? John A. Juhasz GE Interlogix Fiber Options Div.
