Yes. We were asked by our South African dealer to show compliance. We submitted
our EU Decalrations of Conformity. They came back and said this was not
acceptable and that full test reports need to be provided. We then sent them

Hi All,
Guess I sure stirred the pot on this one. One side says you gotta be compliant
even with a non-functional unit. The other side says it's OK to demo something
that may or may not comply.
I am sure that we all try to build compliance in all the way back at the design
stage. None of us (am I

I have had the same "discussion" with both the designers and the board layout
guy. Turns out that our standard proctice is to punch holes for each connector
pin. The holes are usually 0.100" on the surface layer and 0.130" on the inner
layers. The result is overlapping holes that end up l

In the process of developing a new product we hit a snag. We bought very
expensive ($10,000) components for a new product. This happened just before the

In my experience, safety agencies have typicaly frowned on extending leads. The
key issue seems to be reliability of connections. Extra measures need be taken
to be sure of that point. These measures typically include the crimp connection
