Richard, The additional testing period will start on May 1, 2011. The full testing to IEC 62133 will start on May 1, 2012. Please note, this applies to products falling outside the scope of TC 108 (60950-1/60065). The decision for products within the scope of TC 108 has been postponed until 2011. This is partially due to the revised version of IEC 62133 that not be available until 2012.
