Hi Brian; Do you mean specifically the changes to the fire enclosure requirements or the overall differences between 60950 and 62368? If it's the latter, ECMA TR/106 might be helpful (but be forewarned, this document compares 60950 to the 1st edition of 62368). The best part is that it's free! http://www.ecma-international.org/publications/files/ECMA-TR/ECMA%20TR-106.pdf
