Client has designed a USB port with the DC power protected by a TI TPS2052B 
Current limiter:

  *   Component details: 
www.ti.com/product/TPS2052B/description<http://www.ti.com/product/TPS2052B/description>
  *   Component is UL recognised component under QVGS2.E169910 which is based 
on UL 2367


2.5 Limited power sources
c) a regulating network, or an integrated circuit (IC) current limiter, limits 
the output in compliance with Table 2B, both with and without a simulated 
single fault (see 1.4.14) in the regulating network or the IC current limiter 
(open circuit or short circuit). A single fault between the input and output is 
not conducted if the IC current limiter meets a suitable test program as given 
in Annex CC;

Annex CC requires appears to require quite extensive testing of the component, 
and I can't tell whether a component recognised against UL2367 would meet this 
or not.

The issue, is that if they s/c the protection component, the output may no 
longer be LPS - we have provision to fit a suitable fuse on the board, but 
would prefer not to, so would be grateful for any advice

Thanks
Charlie
