Hello,
I think that in the past, there was always the general understanding that a
full copy of the DoC must be supplied with each device sold.
However, more and more people are simply adding a statement to their user
manual to state something like: This device complies with the relevant

I had to take a closer look at your question and at the standard.
You don't have to worry about the bench, chamber, cabling and LISN's
(see Figure 2) when you bring a transmitter into the chamber for CE106.
The exemption also means you don't have to take a transmitter out of an

All,
IEC 60601-1-2 requires surge, burst, and dropouts be done at the maximum and
minimum rated voltages for autoranging supplies. We typically test at 90 Vac
and 240 Vac. Many supplies I see now are rated up to 264 Vac though. Is
anyone testing at 264V? Are there variacs out there to
Rated by test certificate and CB report, or by the sales dept-infected spec
sheet?
That is, what is the rating on the unit's label?
You can configure most variacs to provide well above the input voltage, but
this may do strange stuff to the source impendence. Use a really really

Hi,I am doing some research on what standard(s) might apply to an empty electrical enclosure (the kind used for circuit breaker panels or control equipment). In the USA these would be covered by UL 508 or UL 508A. In Europe I am not sure if I should be looking at the LVD. Maybe the Construction
It certainly depends on how you rate the product, and what ratings
really means. Typically the voltage rating would be marked on the
nameplate of the product, but some agencies will go look in the often
embellished specifications in the operator manual for the voltage range.
Some
Have you looked at EN60439-1? Shows on first page of the galactic emperor's
search engine.
UL508 and UL508A are not safety standards for enclosures. For NEC and ANSI,
there is no single standard for enclosure construction, other than for IP
stuff. Note UL1773, UL2017, UL60950, etc. That is,
The operating/instruction manual is part of the safety submittal/approval
process and shall have correct ratings per the Type Test conditions. But
sales-infected spec sheets on websites or on advertising brochures are not
worthy of notice. Common problem in power industry.

David,
The rating verses test voltage falls under the chicken and egg scenario
sometimes especially for power supplies. If a product is rated 240V some
testing is required at +10% which is 264V. Some power supply companies rate
their products up to 264V so their customers know it will handle

I admit I don’t know much about this topic, but whenever I purchased switchgear
equipment or autotransformers there is always an optional “NEMA 1 Enclosure” I
can purchase. I don’t know what makes it a NEMA enclosure, but maybe their
website would be a good place to start.
NEMA standard 250.

I admit I don’t know much about this topic, but
NEMA is good for the US, but in Europe they use the IPXX system where the first
x describes particle tests (sand and bugs) the second X is for water integrity
and can be found in 60529 Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP code)
NEMA and IPXX are similar but not the same.
