Applying the new standard requires careful consideration of overcurrent and surge protection devices.
Although IEC 62368-1 has been in effect for a few years, designers could choose to comply with IEC 60950 (information/communication technology) or IEC 60065 (audio/video equipment) over IEC 62368-1, depending on the application.
That choice is no longer possible. The new standard is less product-specific, focusing on the energy within the equipment and the intended environments. Learn more about this future-proof approach, including:
