My company is designing a machine where we will use a few 24v power supplie s. These are near 100 watt each at about 4amps out. I was told we will de sign to NFPA 79.
There doesn't seem to be a lot of information concerning requirements for f using the output of the supply. NEC wants a fuse or breaker on lines to pr otect. The vendors I have asked so far have been absolutely useless. I wo uld think an application engineer would know right off the top of his head what particular agency ruling would govern this aspect of applying their pr oduct. SELV, UL508, IEC60950-1, etc....
I worked for a large motor drive company in the 80s and we designed an elec tronic motor overload function in software and got it by UL508. I am looki ng for a similar function in a small power supply.
To end this tome/rant I am asking if you may know which agency(s) I may loo k to for guidance.
thanks for all the help I have received here over the years and MERRY CHRI STMAS to all of you great engineers here on S.E.D.
