Brent, I don't know the Taiwan requirements in detail but many countries require that anything that plugs into the wall meet their own requirements and carry some sort of mark. Assuming your ac/dc adapter is a wall plug-in unit, I am not surprised that they would require testing and/or marking your product. On the other hand, our low voltage/low current product that might connect to your adapter might be exempt from the same requirements.

We are manufacturing an AC/DC Adapter for an end product that is a typical ITE product (with a processor and I/O ports). After reviewing the List of Electronic Products that are "Subject to Measures Governing Registration of Product Certification" I could not locate any reference to a Safety Standard for potential categories for our equipment (8471.41.00.00). Therefore, I do not believe that the safety certification is required. On the other hand, I am aware that regulations are changing on a daily basis. If the Safety Certification IS required, I would also appreciate a recommendation on test laboratories/agents that can assist in the process. Thank you very much for your kind assistance, Brent Taira Eos Corporation ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
