Bill,
There is no requirement by any agency to conduct a Production-Line Leakage Test. I think, it is up to the manufacturer to decide whether this test or any other test, including Production-Line Dielectric and Earth Continuity is needed. If manufacturer has a good quality system including receiving, in-process and final production, then why would someone need to spend money and time on production-line testing? I know that most UL standards require Production-Line Dielectric Strength and Earth Continuity Tests. On the other side of the ocean, most European standards do not require these type of tests and it is up to the manufacturer to show the test house that such testing is not required.

If so, does anybody have it in writing? Thanks for the help, Bill Bisenius ED&D, Inc.
