Silvia Strictly, the power supply should also comply with EN 61010-1, but I expect that you will find that there are no practical differences between that and EN 60950-1 for the laboratory environment. I would suggest that whoever assesses your equipment should also include an assessment of the power supply, which should amount to no more than a paperwork exercise, the manufacturer of the power supply having already carried out testing. This will establish the equivalence of EN60950-1 to EN61010-1 for this application. Best regards

A in vitro diagnostic equipment will be tested according to EN 61010-2-101 to bear CE marking under IVD Directive. It has an external power supply from another manufacturer that bears a CE Marking under LV Directive, tested by EN 60950-1. The external power supply provides 12 Vdc to the IVD equipment and will be sold with it. It is allowed to assume the power supply is an approved critical component or should the power supply be tested together with IVD equipment? Thank you.
