From: Nick Williams [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 28 January 2005 09:55 To: White, Ian Subject: RE: test equipment standards
Ian, EN 60730 is a perfectly adequate standard for this application. If it is not adequate for an industrial environment, then it will be because of factors which neither EN 61010 nor EN 60950 will be any better at dealing with (e.g high levels of dirt and damp and mechanical abuse). Regards Nick. P.S. I can't e-mail from my normal address since I am travelling at present, so this has not been posted to the Group, but you may wish to forward it so it forms part of the wider debate.
