I am looking for advice on temp measurements and the requirements. I have an in-car charger with a temp of 80 degC on external plastic enclosure at max load. Referring to EN 62368-1, the max temp is from 48 - 94 degC depending on the time to be touched to operate the equipment. During operation, it is unnecessary to touch the external enclosure except plugging in and taking out from cigarette socket. Is it deemed to apply 94 degC?
Should the max temp be measured at room temp of 25 degC or the maximum operating temp? If at max operating temp, how to derive the max temp limits in such conditions?
