It will be important to check the extent to which you have, or have not, incorporated all the components and materials which are normally required to be CSA Accepted/UL Recognized because, if you have not, then you could face very high initial component approval, and then on-going follow-up services, costs - for example: using "plastic" materials (e.g. the case & the PWBs) that meet the Flammability requirements of 62368-1/60065 but which are not ""UL/CSA" is going to cost you a lot in both the short and the long terms, as well as potentially delaying your CSAus/cUL Listing!
This sort of problem has been the undoing of many attempts to get products into N.America over the years! John Allen W.London, UK From: Amund Westin [mailto:am...@westin-emission.no] Sent: 05 May 2015 08:18 To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] CSA/cUL Certification Product: Multimedia (audio/video) powered by 12V battery or AC/DC adapter. Before even start making an approach towards CSA and UL, are there any important technical issues that should be addressed before getting on? I mean, the product is finished developed (for Europe market) and maybe a kind of quick check will point out if CSA/cUL Certification is possible at all . Thanks.
