I'm primarily looking for the safety related components.
Guidelines can only be so general that they probably don't help you at
your stage. Instead you need to develop further the skill of detecting
safety-critical parts in each product. Look at each part and think 'How
can it fail? What if it does (for each way it can fail)?
I should have added, but I'm sure you know, is that a failure that does
not make the product unsafe is of no significance for compliance with
safety standards and regulations, even if the resulting damage makes the
product unusable and unrepairable.
