Abstract
The Laser Product Performance Standard reouires interlocks on the protective housing. The standard leaf spring electrical switch commonly used as an interlock is not acceptable. under all conditions imposed in the standard. This paper describes three types of interlocks which meet the requirements of the standard and are commercially available and can be adapted to most products.
