The UK government consider this exemption as " . applying to the whole of
the computer and its components including processors, memory boards, power
converters, power supplies, enclosed housings, modular power subsystems and
adapter cards. It would also seem to apply to the components that are
integrated into the whole computer or that are sold separately for use in an
exempt server. Cables and cable assemblies, and all connectors and connector
assemblies used to provide interconnections for the server, would also be
covered."

Subject: [LF] ECP: Lead in Servers


Folks: I am aware of the exemption for lead solders used in servers and
network infrastructure.Does this exemption effectively extend to the use of
soldered components which themselves have lead-coated leads/terminations?
Or, alternatively, would use of, say, tin-coated leads - with lead solders
- be required by the regulations and supported by industry as a reliable
and practical means?

Thank you! jw
