A simple apparatus as devined by 504.2 NFPA70 2014 says the component cannot GENERATE more than 1.5V, 100mA, and 25mW.
I am a confused about "consuming" vs "generating". A small alarm horn, for example, operates off of 6VDC, and 6mA, which would be 36mW. Would it be considered to "generate" the 6VDC, 6mA, and 36mW??
To me, the component would consume the above, not generate the above.
