    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a method of specifying requirements for low-voltage power supply devices (including switching types) providing d.c. output(s) up to 200 V d.c. at a power level up to 30 kW, operating from a.c. or d.c. source voltages of up to 600 V. The devices are for use within class I equipment or for free-standing operation when used with adequate electrical and mechanical protection, except for medical applications and toys, where special considerations apply. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (1993) and its amendment 1 (2001). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.
