Found in IEC60695-11-10. The suffix can be considered a 'clarification' of HB. Specifies the burning rate (mm per min) over a set length of material.
'Correlation' is based on specific material dimensions, so not necessarily equivalent. Requirements for HB40 and HB75 only if external.

Yes I know the 94HB rating is based on a flame test over a glowing wire test. Is there any correlation between the 2 rating systems? Is HB40 considered equivalent to 94HB?
