Thermal stuff probably came from 60065, while much of the electrical stuff seems to have come from 60950. So someone such as Mr. Nute, TC108 et al, would need to provide the empirical basis for these numbers for sources from external circuits. Should be noted that 'energy' and 'power' cause different problems using different vectors - so think in terms of where the power is coming from and where the power is going. Time does not actually exist, but the requirement is for > 3 sec.
Mr. Nute, et al, Is "short term" power still not defined in 3d edition?

Hello Everyone, I'm looking for guidance on how the PS1 limit of 15 watts for 3 seconds in IEC 62368-1 was determined. Thanks in advance!
