Hi folks IEC/EN60950: 2000 Clause 5.2.2 Note 1 refers to routine electric strength tests of 1 second duration being permissable.
There is also the following ECMA std which says pretty much as EN50116: ECMA-166 Information Technology Equipment - Routine Electrical Safety Testing in Production The next logical place to ask questions is of members of IEC TC74 - does any one on that committee or its sub-committees know of plans to issue an IEC along the lines of EN50116?

It is also my understanding that IEC 60950 incoporates the essential production testing requirements of EN50116 for ITE, viz. earthing resistance and electric strength. But then I have been wrong before....................
