Some of the product specific standards include requirements for protection against siesmic effects, although I don’t know of any which are harmonised under the Machinery Directive. Probably the one closest is: BS ISO 11031. Cranes. Design principles for seismic load” which is still a draft

Thanks for the input. Because our products are Laboratory Equipment and not Industrial Machines, I assume NFPA 79 would not apply. So the SCCR on the nameplate would not be required. It would be difficult to provide anyway. Since we are only required to provide supplementary over current

Hello Brian, The role the enclosure plays in arc flash protection may be less than you would expect. The concern about arc flash isn't for normal operation of the equipment. Arc flash and arc blasts are considered an issue for the servicing of equipment. The concern is that service personnel
