Background: OSM 2012 found it useful to have a similar decision for EN 60065 as the decision 01/8 for EN 60950-1. It has lately been questioned by the chairman of IEC TC108/MT1 that the decision 12/2 may amend EN 60065. Thus, we are proposing a revision of 12/2. Ref. OSM/EE – 2007 Item No.7.1 (enclosed):
% z' w6 X% G+ ~, C“OSM decision 01/8 requires markings on the product (e.g. "Use only power supplies listed in the user manual / user instruction." or “For applicable power supplies see user instruction”). Furthermore such sentences shall be in the languages acceptable to the country where the product will be used.
0 d6 P5 L2 h5 J6 BWe cannot assume that all people speak or understand English and therefore it is necessary to put nearly all languages of such relevant safety instructions on the product.
; i) Q0 n9 \# _5 c" m/ I6 oThat cannot be a solution because many products are too small!”
0 ~3 H9 G8 a% k0 l- gOSM/EE-2007 agreed to use instead of such instructions (sentences) on the product, international accepted symbols like these both marks (ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641): U. U- L* x; W- d2 M; A6 |
Later it was confirmed by TC108/MT1 that the book only can be used as an alternative. See explanatory notes below. Based on this it is proposed to revise decision 12/2 as amended with red text under the decision below.) P" Z& F5 H/ t$ W8 G5 l& N
In case safety of an end apparatus relies upon the power supply for general use (adaptor) to EN 60065 apparatus, the use of the specific adaptor needs to be controlled.

Decision: This decision replaces 12/2 with the amended text in red:' W3 V6 L, d) q0 S
When safety of an apparatus relies upon the power supply (adaptor) using a non-special connector for the a.c./d.c. input, the apparatus must have a marking stating the following: "Use only power supplies listed in the user instructions"
9 l# T+ |1 W; Bor+ n$ Z- Y) G5 k1 J
"For applicable power supplies see user instructions". This statement shall also be in the user-instructions.5 j# R8 P7 h. h
The user instructions must then have a listing of manufacturers and models of the relevant power supplies. As an alternative to the text on the product, it is acceptable to use both the symbols ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641. The book alone is also sufficient (ISO 7000-1641).0 n' c9 e" u) \5 ~1 ~) J( B& I
