Tony,

Sorry not to have replied before now.  Have been engrossed in other things
and not able to respond to newsgroup mail for about 2 weeks.

Not sure of the actual number of the Australian standard at the time however
it was based on IEC 435 for data processing equipment and IEC 380 for office
type equipment (typewriters etc).  Will try to dig up the numbers for you.
do you have a particular reason for this interest?

Telecommunications equipment (at that time only modems and LIUs - Line
Isolation Units) were required to comply with the then Telecom Australia
Specification 1302.

Best regards,
Kevin Richardson

Hi,

When testing in the UK was being done to BS5850:1981 (amended 1985) what
was the standard being used in Australia for IT safety.

I hope someone can remember.

Thanks
