My thanks to those that have responded. I would like to add some clarity to my original question.
Sanmina-SCI's EMC reports have routinely been accepted by BSMI for product modifications and samples were not required, except where the modifications were extensive. For recent submittals, we've also included CB Scheme reports, as applicable. The advice we are receiving (mentioned below) is that for _all_ submittals, not just those for original certifications, will require samples for review. Regards, Peter L.
