Dear Volker Gasse Is this a pure Electrical Safety book or does it also include EMC ?
Best regards Amund -----Opprinnelig melding----- Fra: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]På vegne av Volker Gasse Sendt: 8. april 2002 09:52 Til: [email protected] Kopi: [email protected]; [email protected] Emne: Re: Product Safety "Bible" Hello George, such a book exists. It has been developed by a large group of people involved in various safety matters, some of them you will know, like Horst Dierich, Werner Haab, and myself and Harald Probst, a former Siemens employee. He heads the project and also coordinates the constantly needed updates. Only trouble is, that this book is only available in German (WEKA Media GmbH). I suggest you contact Harald, to see, if there is a possibility of converting this into English language. The document is very comprehensive and in the meantime fills two thick binders, but is available also on CD-Rom. Its contents is split into the following major sections: - CE marking of an electronic product - Certification marks of electronic products - Safety rules (Directives) and safety standards - Fundamentals of Product Safety of electrical and electronic equipment - Planning of product safety (Define safety requirements and environment) - Selection of protection methods against electric shock - Testing methodologies - Key characteristics of main safety standards mit freundlichen Gruessen/ best regards Volker Gasse IBM Germany, Technical Relations/Product Safety Manager, Location: Hanns-Klemm-Str. 45, 71034 Böblingen Mail: D3114/7103-91, D-70548 Stuttgart, Germany Tel: +49-7031-642-6796, Fax: -6916, e-mail: [email protected] [email protected] Sent by: To: [email protected] owner-emc-pstc@majordo cc: mo.ieee.org Subject: Product Safety "Bible" 05.04.2002 22:43 Please respond to georgea Group; I would appreciate your input on a project that I have wanted to do since I became involved in product safety. All of us at one time or another have wished there was a good book available on product safety, particularly for ITE. I call it a product safety "bible". At the end of June I will end a forty year career (almost 1/4 of it in product safety) by my retirement. Although I may decide to do some consulting, it is my hope that this will allow me the time to try and create such a book. This has nothing to do with fame or fortune, as neither is likely to come from such a book. Hardy Krueger's (IBM Germany) 1992 book was a great help to me in 1993 to merely learn the many acronyms and terms associated with the field of product safety design and certifications. However, over the next nine years I found that while his book is an excllent "starter", there is far more information that our pofessional field needs that is not well recorded in a single document. My experience is exclusively with ITE products and their global certifications. You can help me in this effort by suggesting content topics that go beyond the details of IEC 60950. What aspects of ITE requirements, design, testing, certification, field incidents, etc. need to be better documented? Your comments and suggestions will be invaluable if this project can be pulled off before I die or lose interest! Please send any input directly to me off-line at [email protected] There is no need to clutter up the listserver on this topic.
