Brian, It is puzzling why the CSDS Proposal for 6.5.2.4 would reference the Voltage Test (Hipot). I wonder if this was in error. In UL61010-1 3rd Ed. annex F Routine Tests, F.3.1, I believe this is referring to the HiPot test that you would perform on 100% of your production. It states, The

In the field, lots of people such as customers, market surveillances, customs, etc. are asking for a DoC on particular product and/or its variants in Europe. What is the exact meaning of the DoC? Is it the one to support the compliance of CE mark? Or the compliance of all legal requirements

No. Nicht. Aon. It does NOT matter that current flows through the 'filters' and other stuff during AC hi-pot and 'trips' the instrument. This is a good thing - set limit levels on your test equipment to verify cap values and leakage paths. There is no inherent current limit for this test in the

Brian, et al, Lots of good discussion but let's focus on the basics. Nute has pointed out that during hi-pot testing the current that flows will be related to the increase in voltage. So, if the hi-pot voltage is 10x the line voltage then the test current will be 10x the line

For IEC60065 Appendix N2.1 (informative) specifies a maximum production line dielectric trip current limit of 100mA. This is considered a dielectric failure and looked at as the same as breakdown or flashover. -Original Message- From: Brian Oconnell [mailto:oconne...@tamuracorp.com]

Let us see - that is at least 500VA at test levels for most of my stuff - so you will probably have other problems long before that... And was said, the current limit is not normative. As a feared and despised employee (Darth Vader theme music here) of a company division that makes power

Aahh, so the statement, Conformity is checked by inspection, and by the a.c. test of 6.8.3.1 with a duration of at least 1 min, or for MAINS CIRCUITS stressed only by d.c., the 1 min d.c. test of 6.8.3.2, using the applicable voltage from Table 5. is saying that for AC Mains you use AC voltage
