Hi Scott:
Welcome to the world of jawboning.
"Jawboning" is the Nixon-era activity of government officials
speaking as if a law was in place governing a specific activity
when, in fact, there was none.
Some engineers and managers from third-party safety certification
organizations practice ja

Bearing in mind the recent thread about the possible reduction of
the
immunity requirement in Europe to safety issues (on which I vote
yes in
order to keep the costs of the products I buy as low as possible),
it may
well be that Japan is years ahead , rather than behind, in i
Now I am getting mad. I have heard from enough of you that wire marking is
not mandatory.
I understand that EN 60950 does not require marked wire, but wire
acceptable for the application.
I had been lead to believe by a certain engineer from a certain agency
(who shall remain nameless) that marki
Does anyone know the status of immunity testing in Japan?
Radiated RF, ESD, EFT, Surge, Voltage dip, etc.
I've seen info that their emissions testing is voluntary.
Does this mean that their immunity requirements are years behind
emissions requirements?

A few safety type markings are translated into French in Annex NAA of
CSA950/UL1950.

A point of clarification here. UL Recognized AWM isn't required to be
surface marked at all. The marking is perfectly legitimate if it is on the
spool the wire is taken from.
Yet another voice chiming in that it was probably not traceable as being R/C

Dear all
Does anyone have any experience of what the EMC requirements are for
ISM (industrial/scientific/medical) equipment in Japan.
Specifically, we have a client with a range of microwave / convection
ovens for medical applications. What standards are required, does
the testing have to be
Dear Ray,
CE + CE + CE + CE DOES NOT EQUAL CE !
The "end product" as a stand alone unit shall meet the requirements for all
directives that apply (LVD, EMC).
In this case all or most of the components are CE, so it makes your job a
little easier.
The declaration and documentation shall be str

We translate anything necessary on an as required basis. From that, we

Follow-up to my earlier message on markings.
I found the information I was looking for.
CSA Informs bulletin #93-068, dated September 10, 1993 titled Wire and
Cable No. 31.

Hello Group,
Having had to once purge and scrap nearly a quarter million feet of wire
from our production line, I am very sensitive to wire marking issues.
There once was a requirement to surface mark wire with UL and/or CSA
information. This included the insulation type (TEW, PTFE, SJ, SJT, etc.
Richard,
I agree with your interpretations. Any other interpretation, I believe,
will leave you open to liability and speculation.

Hi Doug,
Sounds, most likely like the old "telephone" game, ie, he heard that she said
that he said that this is what we had to do.
I've never heard of such a thing as you stated it. Most likely, the Dell group
had to replace wire that was somehow unsuitable for whatever application they
were
Hi Chris:
I understand in many industrial applications a low voltage DC power
supply is used to power equipment and this may be even hundreds of
feet away from the supply. The filter of the supply would not be
effective since the power supply connection /the antenna `could be'
well beyond wha
Further to Richard Garbett's comments - I understand that the build-up
of leakage currents in the earth can pose hazards to electricians when
they are working on wiring systems if they don't take care to isolate
the phases and neutrals of the entire section they are working on. This
is because (as
Hi Doug,
It sounds to me that the grn/yel wire that was removed was not UL Recognized
wiring. As you may know, UL Recognized wire products are required to be marked
along the wire insulation with such things as UL Recognition mark, voltage &
temperature rating, wire gauge, UL wire style,
I have a perplexing question for anyone...
If we purchase CE compliant computers and monitors, and CE compliant
anything, and place them in a rack, do we have a new "product" that has to
be re-certified?
What if there are 16 computers in the rack (with a switcher for the
monitor/keyboard), and 16
Hello from quite sunny Arizona,
Is there a published collection of commonly used translations of phrases used
for product labeling or in manuals, but primarily used for safety markings?
Such a listing would be preferred to come from reputable translation services
(UL, CSA, IEC, ???).
