Hello again,

 

IEC 62368-1 

6.4.8 Fire Enclosures

6.4.8.2.3 Compliance criteria

Compliance is checked by inspection of applicable data sheets or test.
The material flammability class is checked for the thinnest significant
thickness used.

 

There's not a definition of "significant thickness" in the standard. Given
that openings in a fire enclosure have controlled maximum dimensions I'm
going to read "significant thickness" as "thickness of an area of material
that is larger than the maximum permitted opening in that face of the fire
enclosure"

 

Thoughts welcomed!

 

All the best

James
