Re: [PSES] [EXTERNAL] [PSES] Taiwan BSMI Product Labelling

[Ryan Jazz]

Hello Cecil,
Yes the product needs to be labelled in simplified Chinese, also the product 
manual.
The Chinese will be needed for any safety related verbiage such as volts, amps 
etc. and product ‘type’. (main function)
Symbols can be used as an alternate.
The English can be shown, as long as the Chinese is also present.
Foreign manufactures name can be in English.
I am sorry I cannot point you to the source at this time.
Sincerely,
Ryan Jazz

Hello Boštjan,
Appreciate your reply.
I have since learned that Table 10 and Table 11 are for the Working Voltages.
Table 14 is what you mentioned,  Withstand Voltage (Transient)
Scott, Thank you for your reply also.

Dear Ryan,

Table 10 - input is your temporary overvoltage. Normally 2000Vpk for mains 
voltages up to 250Vac
Table 11 - input is your working voltage
Table 14 - input is your transient voltage - defined by OVC (for OVC II 
2500Vpk).
So table 11 brings you very low value and normally table 10 and 15 are 
dominating.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Boštjan

Dear Members,
Hope you can help me understand the requirement for the clearance needed 
between the bottom PCB of power supply to metal chassis.
Looking up UL 62368-1 Third Edition, and using the 'Voltage up to an including 
peak' of 2000 V for overvoltage category II Table 10 for <30 kHz.
I see the clearance is 1,27 mm.
Going over to Table 11 >30 kHz this clearance value jumps to 13,2 mm.
Am I doing this correctly? Or should I be using the 'working voltage' of the 
power supply, Primary to Earthed Dead Metal 392 Vpk, Primary to Secondary 520 
Vpk.
100-240 Vac, 100 W, 90 kHz switching frequency, AC power supply with a 2x3 inch 
footprint.
End product is, overvoltage category II, pollution degree 2, material group III.
Indoor audio music processor, Class 1.
All guidance would be appreciated.
If this 13,2 mm value is indeed correct, I may need to use an insulator under 
the power supply.
Any recommendations for a UL rated insulator type?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [PSES] Low Voltage connectors called out on CCL


Hi Ryan:

UL makes some of its money through certifications.  Regardless of product 
safety, components, including connectors, are certified; their required use in 
end-products justifies the requirement for certification of those components.  
So, this is one of those unwritten requirements.  And, if they are not 
certified, you will put the demand back on your supplier, who will apply to UL 
(which will result in more certification business).

For example, see https://www.ul.com/services/ul-taiwan-usb-test-lab  This is 
for USB connectors and cable, and has little to do with safety (except for 
extended power range (EPR) in the USB PD specification).

As far as I know, there is no requirement in IEC 62368-1, but there may be such 
requirement in UL 62368-1.  As one respondent said, ask to see the requirement.

Good luck!
Rich

The government has introduced the legislation to make it happen. The government 
has a majority in parliament therefore passage of the legislation  is as 
certain as anything can be in politics. As it is right now, CE marking (and 
alternatively UKCA marking) is recognized in the UK, so as long as the 
legislation passes prior to Dec 31st, it will simply be a continuation of the

Dear Scott & Lauren,

Today, I received the following info to supplement the above development.

"Some news from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy 
(BEIS):-

HMG intends to introduce legislation to continue recognition of the CE marking 
and reversed epsilon marking until 31 December 2024 for most goods being placed 
on the market or put into service in Great Britain as part of new ministers’ 
commitment to reduce burdens for industry.

This package of measures is intended to provide businesses with more 
flexibility and reduce burdens

Christopher,



Per Annex Y.6, you have to consider performing the cold impact tests on

Folks,



When do we need to do IEC 62368-1 ES3/PS3 cold impact test as per IEC 62368-1 
Third edition.



I was told if EUT is powered by ES3/PS3 then it is required.



any insight will be helpful



Thanks in advance

[PSES] Country Requirements -EMC Safety

[Ryan Jazz]

Dear Members,
I am trying to create a list of country requirement as it relates to EMC and 
Safety requirements.
However I have not been successful-These requirements appear to be a mystery.
One would think if manufacturers are required to meet country requirements it 
would be public knowledge.
I have checked trade.gov and other searches with no luck.
If anyone can please share this secret it would be much appreciated.
Perhaps you can share how you go about finding these requirements.
If one has to use a subscription service to get the answers I would like to 
hear any recommendations.
Sincerely,
Ryan Jazz

[PSES] USB port for data only

[Ryan Jazz]

Dear Members
Our company is designing a battery powered device that uses a USB port to 
update firmware.
This port cannot be used to provide 5VDC to charge or power external devices as 
we won't be providing those connections. (to limit battery power)
How best should we label this USB port to indicate this port cannot supply 
power.
Is there are special logo anyone is aware?
Of course we will mention this in the user manual, but need another method on 
the product itself to avoid user frustration.
Like to hear your thoughts.
Kind Regards,
Ryan Jazz

[PSES] Short Range Device RED standard?

[Ryan Jazz]

Dear Members,
We have a product being developed which will use a pre-approved radio which has 
WiFi and Bluetooth.
The radio is a 2.4 GHz module with less than 10mW of transmit power
I am trying to determine to what RED standard(s) I must test the final product.
I posed this question to a local Southern California lab, and I was told they 
were not allowed to answer as the manufacturer has to make that determination.
We have had other similar SRD products tested by various labs, before my time, 
and some of them were tested to EN 300-440 and others to EN 301-489.
I have looked at this new radio's FCC Grant and it doesn't say what the 
end-user must do-and same with the radio manufacturer, who cannot answer.
I even looked into the ERC Recommendation 70-03 and also the ETSI search tool 
and could not find a definitive answer.
The radio is a 2.4 GHz module with less than 10mW of transmit power.
Any advise you can give me on will be much appreciated.

[PSES] RED DoC and ETSI EN 301 489-1

[Ryan Jazz]

Dear members,
We have a Short Range Device transmitter and corresponding receivers we install 
in various enclosures for which we have test reports from different US labs.
Transmitter power is less than 10mW and uses the 2.4GHz band.
The various reports issued show the ETSI EN 301 489-1 V1.9.2 as one of the 
standards to which they were tested. The other is EN 300 440 V2.1.1.

  *   My question is how do we show this ETSI standard in the RED Declaration 
of Conformity when this standard is listed only in the OJEC under the EMC 
Directive?
Many RED guidance articles mention the EMC Directive should not be identified 
in the RED DoC.
Is it OK to list this ETSI standard under the RED Directive-I am afraid it 
would be misleading or raise a red flag. (pun unintended).
Instead of this ETSI standard, should we list the EN 55035:2017 standard 
instead, which is published in the OJEC under the RED?
I would appreciate your valuable advice.
Sincerely Yours,
Ryan Jazz

[PSES] Declarations of Conformity-Gap Analysis Reports-EMC

[Ryan Jazz]

Dear Group,
I am afraid the answer to my question may rely on purchasing 'before and after' 
standards and sifting out the delta in order to prepare a Gap Report to a 
Declaration of Conformity.

  *   If there is an alternate method please advise. A recommended service 
perhaps. Decoder Ring?
At the moment I am stuck trying to come up with a source I can reference to 
explain the difference between EN 55035:2017, vs. EN 55035:2017/A11:2020, and 
EN 55032:2015, vs EN 55032:2015/A11:2020.
This forum touched on it last October by sharing a document referring to the 
Frankfort Agreement 
(https://boss.cenelec.eu/media/4dij213u/en_iecreferencing.pdf)

  *   Is there a similar explanation for the latest amendments to 55035, and 
can someone share a good source to find these difference.
Not sure why these matters have to be so cryptic in this already mazy world of 
product compliance.
I've been at this since 1999 and this is one area where I have not felt 
well-heeled.
Your help and guidance is greatly appreciated.
