PVC Wire and Lead-free

[owner-emc-p...@listserv.ieee.org]

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Group,

I just learned and confirmed that certified PVC wire has lead as a constituent
part (e.g. UL 1430 and UL 1015).  I do not know what percentage.

Now I learn from my supplier engineers that because of the lead-free
initiative and ROHS/WEEE, these PVC wires will be somehow changed.  Does
anyone know if the certifications can be maintained?

Thanks,

-doug
