hazards are accessible. The test finger is used with a force of up to 30 N to see whether it can be pushed through openings. An additional test probe for testing accessibilty to TNV circuits is shown in Figure 2C (Figure 16). REFERENCEComplete requirements are given in IEC 60950, Clauses 2.1 and 4.2.1 (2.1.2 and 4.1.2).
