Important Safety Certification Standards and Transition Support
Information
The IEC 60950-1 2nd Edition safety standard (Information Technology Equipment) is going through a
replacement phase due to the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition safety standard (Audio/Video, Information, and
Communication Technology Equipment).
Intel server systems identified in this service guide are certified to:
• The new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard for countries that have adopted this new standard.
• The outgoing IEC 60950-1 2nd Edition standard for countries that have not yet adopted the new
standard.
During the global adoption/certification transition phase between the outgoing and new standards, safety
requirement differences between the standards may temporarily dictate restricted usage of Intel server
products as follows:
• In countries that have adopted the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard, no location restrictions
apply beyond the standard intended application use requirements.
• In countries that have not yet adopted the new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard, restricted access
locations are required. Access in these locations is permitted only by technically trained and qualified
personnel who are aware of potential safety hazards.
Note: This requirement applies only to Intel® Server System products released in 2019 or later. Legacy Intel®
Server System products released in 2018 or earlier provide safeguards that require no additional access
restrictions.
Explanation of temporary restricted access location measures:
The new IEC 62368-1 3rd Edition standard does not consider 240 VA an energy hazard. The outgoing IEC
60950-1 2
nd
Edition standard does consider 240 VA an energy hazard, therefore Intel server products
released in 2019 or later certified to this standard require restricted access locations.
Legacy Intel server products (released in 2018 or earlier) were designed with additional safeguards to meet
IEC 60950-1 2
nd
Edition standard 240 VA requirements, so no location restrictions apply beyond the
standard intended application use requirements. After the IEC 60950-1 standard is phased out globally and
Intel server products are certified to the new IEC 62368-1 standard, the temporarily restricted access
locations will no longer be required.
