The UL 60950-1 standard specifies requirements intended to reduce risks of fire, electric shock, or injury for the operator and layman who may come into contact with the equipment and, where specifically stated, for a service person. User is the term applied to all persons other than service persons. Requirements for protection should assume that users are not trained to identify hazards, but will not intentionally create a hazardous situation. Service persons are expected to use their training and skill to avoid possible injury to themselves and others due to obvious hazards that exist in service access areas of the equipment.UL 60950-1 verifies information about potential hazards is marked on the equipment or provided with the equipment, depending on the likelihood and severity of injury, or made available for service persons. In general, users shall not be exposed to hazards likely to cause injury.
