RE: Mexico question

You can get NOM exemption by meeting certain criteria
for specialized equipment.
Fast microprocessors,used in special places ( CO's) and not touched
by non-technical people.

this does not give you a NOM mark, but you get a letter
stating its OK to ship into Mexico based on its specialized application.

Richard,

RE: Mexico question

2001-08-08 Thread Alejandro Torrecilla Torregrosa
Hi Doug,

NOM-001 includes electrical safety requirements and testing methods for type
approval of household electronic apparatus as TVs, remote control,
microwaves,...
NOM-016 includes electrical safety requirements and testing methods for
electronic apparatus for use in office as fax machines, photocopiers,...
NOM-019 includes electrical safety requirements for data processing
equipment as Laptops, notebooks, palmtops,..., their peripherals (printers,
plotters, monitors,...) and equipment used to communicate such devices as
routers, hubs,...

In NOM-001 and NOM-016, the scope includes not only devices connected to AC
Mains, but also conected to other kind of power supply as batteries. The
scope of NOM-019 does not specify whether the devices are connected to the
AC mains or not. In fact, it is not limited to devices connected to AC
mains. Notice also that the standard is based on IEC65 and IEC950 whose
scope is not limited to equipment connected to AC mains. As far as I
understand, any ITE equipment must be NOM certified. The exception is when
the device is going to be sold into another device (as modem cards) in which
case the whole product requires NOM certification.

Hope it helps,

Alejandro
