Re 'rationale', there is some information in Clause 0 of 62368-1 and in
IEC 62368-2. But 60950-1 and 62368-1 are fundamentally different,
because most of the provisions of 60950-1 were derived from experience
and ad-hoc reasoning but those of 62368-1 are derived from structured
reasoning
to
use TR-106 to compare 60950-1 with 62368-1, 2nd edition). I made some
cross-referencing notes for internal use, but even with that, it was fiddly
to use. I don't know of anything that compares 60950-1 to the current

There are a few considerations. First, a 60950-1 power supply is generally evaluated to Overvoltage Category II, the 61010-1 application may be something else. Second, 61010-1 electrical leakage current requirements are much lower. Third, the standard used for EMC evaluation is different

Anthony,
IF we are following the CAS Number, then, this ebay product is definitely not
