I recommend covering anything that would cause sparks if shorted.

Hi Charlie:

Is there a clause/requirement in 61010-1 similar to 60950-1 clause 2.1.1.5 where a SELV source >240 VA is not permitted to be accessible in an Operator Area

I could not find this requirement in 61010-1, 3^rd edition.

The 240 VA requirement does not insure safety due to overheating of an external conductor such as metal necklace or watchband or screwdriver across the 240 VA per 60950-1.  Tests were done by the Japanese contingent to TC108 that very much less than 240 VA would cause unacceptable overheating.

Best regard,

Rich
