Amund -

Since A11 addressed issues related to LED optical power
evaluations, it's added requirements would not necessarily
apply to a power supply.  Note that A4 has the same date of
suprecession of previous standards as A11.  You could easily
make the case that A4 is good enough.

My recollection is that A11 was a band aid, because TC76 was
though too in slow making needed changes to IEC60825-1.

Keep in mind that the harmonized standards lists for the
RTTED and LVD indicate EN60950:1992 through A11 will be
superceded 1JAN2005.  You may wish to consider a different
power supply or ask the vendor to update their certification
reports, if the product's manufacturing life will extend
beyond 1JAN2005.
