John Many Thanks - we will try to get a copy of IEC61984 and study it in detail.

It may be wrong to apply 61010 to a connector, as they have their own safety standard, IEC 61984. It depends on whether 61010 explicitly claims to apply to connectors. We have met this issue before, with other product standards: they don't take into account that there are special issues with connectors. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
