Kim,
The short answer to your question is 'yes'.
I'm afraid I don't have time for the long answer this afternoon!

Hi
The Machinery directive has EN 60204 as its main standard for electrical
safety. In the latest version of the directive in Annex 1 §1.5.1 is stated
that “The safety objectives set out in Directive 73/23/EEC shall apply to
machinery”.
Does this mean that we shall use EN 60204 and a LVD standard to prove
compliance?
I would like to, because EN 60204 is not very specific. Latest I have
discovered that it does not describe how to measure leakage current, no
reference to eg. IEC 60990.
