John, First and foremost you need to check your product specific standard to determine if it references other standards which might address outdoor requirements If there is no reference to another standard, I would pick a standard such as the IEC 60 335-2 series and particularly for equipment that you know is being used outdoors; this could be a standard for swimming pool accessory equipment or a fountain pump or other similar product used outdoors. Surely these standards will address outdoor requirements and the wiring/cabling for limited power outputs. Peter
