EN 60204-1:2006 and EN 60950-1:2006 define requirements for the use of those symbols (and the two are not entirely consistent). So if you are applying those standards I'd assume the symbol usage will still apply as stated until those standards are revised, regardless of what the IEC does.
-Dave From: Scott Xe [mailto:scott...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2015 10:19 AM To: EMC-PSTC@LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG Subject: [PSES] Earth symbols required in clause 7 marking & instructions of EN 60335-1 The standard calls for IEC 60417 for the symbols. Currently there are 3 symbols to serve different purposes. 1. IEC 60417 - 5017: General earthing 2. IEC 60417 - 5018: Functional earthing 3. IEC 60417 - 5019: Protective earthing 5017 is being proposed to be withdrawn according to IEC discussion result and suggest not to be used. In UK, 5018 shall not be used to indicate a functional earthing conductor according to the notes of IEC 60417. What was happening for UK not to use 5018? Is there any replacement for UK?
