I thought it was common in most safety standards to require such a warning marking on panels with AC Mains hazard behind them. Something like this statement from IEC/EN/UL 61010-1 for ISM equipment:
"If the instructions for use state that an OPERATOR is permitted to gain access, using a TOOL, to a part which in NORMAL USE may be HAZARDOUS LIVE, there shall be a warning marking which states that the equipment must be isolated or disconnected from the HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage before access." I thought a high voltage warning marking was required on all panels with such hazards behind them. Is this not true or just not true for IT equipment? I also thought that devices with multiple power sources, such as two AC power cords, had to have a warning marking informing the user to disconnect both or all power connections before gaining access.

Thanks for the replies. This product only has a single external power source, so no label is required. (And yes, Boštjan, I meant appliance "inlet", not "outlet"). Jim From: Jim Hulbert [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, October 23, 2014 1:09 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [PSES] Disconnect power before servicing label required? A question has been posed to me, with reference to ITE standards UL/EN 60950-1, whether a label is required near the appliance outlet stating "disconnect power before servicing". The equipment is table top ITE, pluggable with a detachable cord. I do think it is an appropriate instruction for the manuals, but I don't see a requirement for it to be on a label. Is it acceptable to have the instruction in the manual only? Thanks.
