Tania, I've interpreted the EMC statement in the Annex of ICES-003 as suggested text only. EMCAB-3 (Issue 3 May 1998) Implementation and Interpretation of the Interference-Causing Equipment Standard for Digital Apparatus, ICES-003, QA #10, says that the ICES-003 regulation is met with

Hello George: If you fail the high pot test. You should refer to your transformer manufacturer to see if they are IEC950/EN60950 compliant or not. For instance IEC 950 calls for Australian high pot test of 2.5 KV if you have 1.5 KV transformer, then your are more likely susceptible to failure.

George, Do you have transient voltage surge supressors. Maybe this is why you failed the hipot. The standard allows you to pass the Impulse Test in lieu of hipot. Try this method. Regarding insulation between TNV-3 and SELV/Earth the standard allows you the following alternatives routes to

In the U.S., 19 and 23 racks are pretty much the standard (and don't forget the Bellcore hole spacing), yes? How about in Europe? I've heard they use 19 and 21 racks (or their metric equivalent). Is one size typical for data applications, and the other typical to telecom applications? How
