I too have had some struggles with this concept.
I now tend to think of "Basic", "Reinforced" and "Double" more in terms of an
insulation strength as opposed to an actual material. For instance, "Double"
insulation can be provided by a properly set and maintained distance through
air, i.e no

OK, I'll get more specific. I have an external interconnecting cable that
contains hazardous voltages. Because of the application, in the USA I must
use UL Listed CL3P cable which is rated for use in risers and air handling
spaces (smoke requirements of the National Electrical Code). The insulati

Which edition are you referring to? 2.2.1 in EN60950-1 and
EN60950, 3rd ed., addresses general requirements for SELV
circuits. In these standards, there is also no
2.9.4.anything.
I'll assume for now that it's 2nd ed., through the 4th
amendment.

be a single piece of insulation (I do note you used "may").
There's no definition, per se, of multiple layers, except
for the case of thin sheet material.

A reinforced insulation system by definition may be multiple layers if it is
all the same insulating material. Two different insulating materials must be
evaluated as "double insulation" = one of the materials must meet the
requirements for basic insulation, the other material must meet the
requir
