Under the “products liability” claim, what is customarily done by those engaged in the supplier’s business is evidence of whether a risk of injury would be acceptable to a reasonably prudent person. However, the acceptability of a risk of injury is determined by the conduct of a reasonably prudent person having full knowledge of the risk, whether such conduct is usually followed or not. Compliance with [industry [customs] [standards] [codes] [rules__ [or] [governmental [rules] [standards] [codes__ is evidence of the acceptability of the risk, but it is not conclusive.
