What does the Generic or Product-family standard that calls up the Basic standard say? If it doesn't call up Amendment A2, you don't need to re- test, unless it has an *undated* reference to EN 61000-4-4. In any case, the unamended (by Amdt A2) standard doesn't become inadmissible until 2004-07-01. You amy also take into account the consequences of the generator not conforming to Amendment 2. If those consequences can be shown to be insignificant, and you keep a record of that assessment, you don't need to re-test. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only. http://www.jmwa.demon.co.uk Interested in professional sound reinforcement and distribution?
