Hi Peter: As I have already written, I feel that safety-critical component as well as safety-related component are terms that require more consideration than is necessary. Basically, as I understand what you have said, a safety- critical component is one where its failure creates a

Dave, As I recall, this used to be in CISPR16 ...Radio Interference Measuring Apparatus and Methods, section 9. In later versions of CISPR16, this requirement was mysteriously deleted from CISPR16, and section 9 became Reserved for future use. I have the old version of CISPR16 buried in my paper

Re: RF Immunity Testing to 50V

I assume that's 50 V/m. If you can do a CI type test on any attached cables up to 400 MHz that would reduce the required illumination spot size down to 40 cm and any test house which is capable of generating the usual RI levels will be able to achieve the higher level by moving the antenna

From my reading on the subject, EN 60950 has different Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) limits for alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) because the human body reacts to them differently. AC makes your muscles contract, so you tend to hang onto the source of the electric shock. DC
