Re: 230 Vac or 240 Vac?

David, Here is my understanding based on an earlier discussion on this forum and some of our business experiences. The agreement amongst many high volt countries was on a 220-240V range. This implies a 230V nominal. The 240V countires agreed, but never changed their nominals, as this would have

230 Vac or 240 Vac?

Group, I seem to remember that Australia was changing their nominal voltage from 240 to 230 V. Is this true? Are there other countries that have nominal voltages of 240 V? I want to determine the maximum voltage for leakage current tests. Best regards, David. David Gelfand Regulatory Approv

Re: FCC for PCs

UL standards for Automotive ESAs

Hi all, New subscriber here. I have recently moved from designing variable speed drives to automotive electronics and hence aiming for the 'e' as opposed to the CE mark. As part of our drives release procedure, we were required to meet UL standards and used to test to UL 508C. I have clearly

Check page 8 for the FCC's A/B criteria in 1996. This may or may not be their current thinking. http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet62/ oet62rev.pdf Richard Woods -

Re: FCC for PCs

Points well made. With the half-life of PCs the way they are, there is also increased likelihood they would get sold and re-sold and subsequently end up in a home. Companies often sell off their old PCs at auctions. I just received an offer to purchase Pentium 2 PCs from a local high tech firm for

RE: FCC for PCs

I recall from my days of managing EMC that the FCC does not allow a manufacturer to "declare" if an ITE product is Class A or B. They look at the price, and where the product is advertised and sold as well. If the product is within the price range consumers are willing to pay, advertised in consu

RE: FCC for PCs

You are right, they should be Class B unless they excusively specify that the PC is not for home use. You will need them to be Class B to start with and when you load them with custom option cards there is a high chance that the EMI characteristics will worsen and you'll at least meet Class A. Pr
