It would be better to write 'but in addition' rather than 'except', since a
metal back also meets the defective requirement in Section 24. 'Except'
gives an immediate impression that some requirement of the standard is *not*
met.

Subject: Re: [PSES] Harmonised standard withdrawn [60335-2-24]

Dear Scott:

        It doesn't matter where, except for convenience or "luck" 
in finding the remark should the need arise.

        In general, I structure the report to follow the statements on the
face of the Declaration.  In this case, I suggested declaring compliance
with 60335-2-24 with exceptions. 
So, I'd have substantive remarks at the appropriate section or sections of
the 60335-2-24 checklist, with the substantive remarks describing how the
article or test protocol deviates from the standard and WHY.

        If the risk assessment has a part relating to fire, and the approach
taken is usually limited to "see 60335-2-24 checklist" (fire being possible
due to MANY factors), I would either say nothing different - the substantive
remarks under the standard speak for themselves - or I would amend the
remarks to "meets 60335-2-24 except [cite ONLY clause number where the
substantive remarks were recorded]."

        It would be nearly as convenient if the reverse practice was
followed.  That is, have the substantive remarks in the risk assessment, and
then in the related part or parts of the
60335-2-24 checklist, refer to that specific part of the risk assessment.

        In addition to trying to make a "substantive observation of
interest" easy to find, another principle I try very hard to follow is to
limit detail design or execution observations to ONE PLACE in the report,
and then refer to that part as needed. 
That way, if the report is amended to reflect a revised design, there is
less risk of having inconsistent observations recorded in the report.

Regards,
Chuck Seyboldt
