Ron,
Check in section NAA of UL 1950 (P. 223 of the 3rd edition. Although
they don't have the simple phrases you are looking for, here you will find
nice French translations of text which may be used as markings or
instructions. Perhaps you can extract portions for your use. But this is
only French. I have used a German software program for writing (and
translating) letters, but that may not cut it from a legal aspect, i.e., if
the translation was not quite correct.
Hope this helps some,
