The A deviation for Sweden is in the current issue of EN 60950,
and is also in the latest version of EN60950 (not yet issued,
equivalent to IEC 60950 third edition).
I note that the latest version of EN 60950 also has the same note
re switches containing mercury, as an A Deviation for Switzerland,
with the reference Ordinance on environmentally hazardous
substances SR 814.013, Annex 3.2, Mercury

John,
Thanks for your reply.
Following up on this deviation for restricting switched containing
mercury- When
a country as Sweden did in 1995 becomes a member of the EU does anyone
know if
the A deviations cited in EN60950 was relaxed or removed?
re: Annex ZC, A-Deviations, in EN 60950 :Swedish National deviation:-
Clause 1.5.1 Sweden (Ordinance SFS 1991:1290)
Thanks.
If questions, please contact me ASAP.

Subject: Inquiry on Restrictions and Bans of Mercury in Product
components
Folks,
Can anyone provide specific text or reference that provides a specific
restriction, limitation or ban to import into Europe or North America of
any
component or system that includes relays with mercury in it . I only
found
a ban
for Mercury content of all kinds of batteries ( except button cells) in
Directive 91/157/EEC
Further, can someone provide any reference to a similar ban or
restriction
on
electronics use of Cadmium, Lead, Nickel, Tin, or Beryllium? Any
feedback
is
appreciated. Thanks
Best Regards,Paul J Smith
