Hello experts,
My goal is to put together a reading and reference list of fundamental standards that help me understand the basic physics and rationale behind the requirements in safety standards (mainly EN 62368-1, EN 61010-1, EN 60335-1). I've been finding a lot of useful references from the Normative References sections of these standards and from the IEC TR 62368-2 explanatory notes. In your opinion, what standards should I add to this list to expand my knowledge of electrical safety? Thanks in advance James General Terminology IEC 60050 IEV <https://www.electropedia.org/> "Electropedia" although this is sometimes lacking Electric shock IEC 60664-1 "Insulation coordination for equipment within low voltage supply systems - Part 1: Principles, requirements and tests" IEC 60990-1 "Methods of measurement of touch current and protective conductor current" IEC 60479 series shock current on humans and livestock IEC 61201 Touch voltage limits Electrically caused fire Power source classification in 62368-1 references IEC 60065 and IEC 60950-1. But where did they derive their information from? What are the power levels based on? UL 94 and UL 1581 for material and cable flammability Thermal Burn Basic standards detailing risks of touch temperatures ISO 13732-1 and IEC Guide 117 Other? Radiation IEC 62471 "Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems" IEC 60065 for audio levels Other? Mechanical hazards ???
