Dear experts, The CB reports for our products allow for the use of alternates for the majority of the d.c. powered components as long as the alternate parts provided are to the same procurement spec's as the part listed in the CB report. These parts are rated +24Vdc or less and the majority of them are supplied for limited power sources. We have been informed CQC will not accept this practice for products which are to be CCC certified. We do not understand what added safety this restriction brings provided the alternate parts are bought to the same spec. Enforcing this rule would have serious implications for us. Before we do it I would like to know:
Have you experienced similar issues? If so, how did you manage to comply with it? Any information or advice would be gratefully received.
