Hello Chuck, A) Go to the Alta-Vista search tool (or other favorites) and put in the term: power line AND canceror try: power +line +cancer It will direct you to many links. B) Go to the Safety Link (http://www.safetylink.com) and look for the link to NIOSH. I believe they have material

Chuck: There is a comprehensive review and assessment of studies on this subject presented in the Oct. 1995 issue of the IEEE Spectrum probably the most trustworthy survey source for this type of information. The EMC Society Newsletter (issue #168, winter 1996) had a brief comment on a

Dear Gary, Chris Dupres in his reply to your query about '61010 mentioned a check list in process of being written by BSI, but not yet available. I created a check list of my own a couple of years ago to record assessment of designs against the criteria of BSEN61010, it has every paragraph of

I believe I now understand your product's nature. First, it is not ITE, i.e. not under IEC 60950. Technically, it falls outside the letter of the LVD which refers to the voltage rating of the equipment. However, I feel it falls within the intent of the LVD. Here's why: In use, the device may

Dear Gary, Other replies that I have seen to your original query have related to the Technical Construction File, in turn related to the EMC Directive. But you mentioned only a Technical File, so here’s my ha’p’th: The UK Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) in their idiot’s guides to the

That's odd! In my copy of the LVD, every article is addressed to the member states. It primarily establishes the commom rules for safety within the EU. It is up to the member states to execute and enforce the Directive. The Commission has no enfocement authority over manufacturer. However, in

UL1950 and Clause 2.4.2, Limited Current Circuits

Dear Group, 2.4.2 of UL1950 defines the upper current limit for Limited Current Circuits when the frequency is above 1kHz as 0.7mA multiplied by the frequency in kilohertz (up to 70mA peak). Since the limit increases (up to 70mA) as the frequency goes up, one can assume that the human body is

Note that the Low Voltage Directive merely requires member states to approve the import of only electrical products that are safe. It is not directed to manufacturers, nor does it say HOW a manufacturer must meet this condition

The directive says designed or adapted for use with.. the voltages ranges you state. If you product is not intended for use with such voltages then I do not see you need to seek approval (LVD) irrespective of what you rate the isolation. Having said that if you state a rated isolation then
