EN 60950 applies since it's a *security* camera, and the relevant CENELEC product committee chose that standard. But a camera for other purposes in a household context should meet EN 60065. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
