Safety requirements according to IEC/EN 62368-1 - understand and apply

Do you develop audio, video, telecommunications, or IT equipment? Or are you responsible for the approval of such products? Then IEC/EN 62368-1 is of central importance to you

This standard replaces the previous standards EN 60065 and EN 60950-1 and is based on a hazard-based safety approach. It applies to a wide range of modern devices with digital functions and takes into account current technologies such as liquid cooling, USB-C, lithium batteries, and more.

This seminar will provide you with a sound overview of the 3rd edition (2020) of the standard as well as an outlook on the 4th edition (2024), which will bring additional requirements and clarifications.
