Subcomponents

If the existing component consists of further subcomponents, you have the option to add them here. Although documenting subcomponents is not strictly required, a structured approach for capturing them can contribute to making the risk assessment of your product more transparent. Moreover, it is advisable to use components and subcomponents if hazards refer only to a specific part of your product. Clear structuring allows for a precise assignment of risks and hazards, which in turn leads to a more comprehensive and accurate risk assessment.
