I was in a discussion with a co-worker when the anti-tease mechanism of an
EMO came up and I was reminded of an anecdotal story from the late 1990s
that I heard from a German Safety engineer at LGA Nürnberg. What was told
to me is the anti-tease requirement came about partly because people on an
italian auto assembly line wanted an extra smoke break. They would tease
the switch until the assembly line shut down and the switch would not
retain the 'tripped" position to identify exactly who did it.

Can anyone validate this story?

Thanks, doug
