Going back a ways, UL 1459, ed. 3 Sections 72 and 73 along with Appendix C provide quite a lot of details regarding production line tests for telecom equipment. I have not been able to find a reference within UL 1459 which might indicate a deeper source of the requirements as reflected in 1459.
My opinion and not that of my employer.

Even then, the only routine testing I found in my very limited search was for routine hipot testing.

I tried tracking this down myself as I had to show my people where the Hi Pot and Bonding tests were required. You can't get from UL1950 to the production line tests. I know it's called out on the Factory Audit Manuals... but where does the requirement come from? What I got a hold of was a UL procedure for their Follow up Services personnel. But I hope you can use this document to further track down the source of the requirement. Try doing a search in Google for "File E211188 Vol. 1" This is where I saw it. File E211188 Vol. 1 Issued: ( ) A P P E N D I X STANDARDIZED APPENDIX PAGES FOR: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT INCLUDING ELECTRICAL BUSINESS EQUIPMENT (NWGQ, NWGQ7), POWER SUPPLIES FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT INCLUDING ELECTRICAL BUSINESS EQUIPMENT (QQGQ, QQGQ7), TELEPHONE APPLIANCES AND EQUIPMENT (WYQQ, WYQQ7), POWER SUPPLIES FOR TELEPHONE APPLIANCES AND EQUIPMENT (QQJE, QQJE7) These appendix pages shall also be used for Components Recognized under the categories noted below when one or more descriptive Sections of the Follow-Up Service Procedure require that the manufacturer conduct the factory production-line tests described in Appendix D: (NWGQ2/QQGQ2/WYQQ2/QQJE2) (NWGQ8/QQGQ8/WYQQ8/QQJE8) Ryan Jazz Jayasinghe Canoga Perkins (www.canoga.com <http://www.canoga.com> ) Compliance Engineer 20600 Prairie Street Direct: (818) 678-3898 or x1198 Chatsworth, CA 91311-6008 Main:(818) 718-6300 e-mail: r...@canoga.com <mailto:r...@canoga.com> FAX:(818) 678-3798 From: Rich Nute [mailto:ri...@sdd.hp.com] Sent: Thursday, February 13, 2003 2:52 PM To: pmerguerian2...@yahoo.com Cc: emc-p...@majordomo.ieee.org Subject: Re: North American Production-Line Tests; ANSI or Other Hi Peter: > Anyone knows of ANSI or other North American production-line test > procedures/requirements for electrical/electronic equipment?

I don't believe any North American standard specifies production-line tests. For UL, production-line tests are specified in the front of each Volume of the UL Follow-Up Services (FUS) procedure. For CSA, I believe production-line tests are specified in the product report. Best regards, Rich This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
