Now I am getting mad. I have heard from enough of you that wire marking is not mandatory.
I understand that EN 60950 does not require marked wire, but wire acceptable for the application. I had been lead to believe by a certain engineer from a certain agency (who shall remain nameless) that marking certainly was mandatory. Not having a copy of the wire standards, I foolishly accepted this as gospel and did what I had to. I agree that marked wire is certainly the easiest way to prove compliance. But if it is not mandatory, one can be creative is solving the problem of proof. I am frustrated by the fact that I may have been mislead. If this proves to be correct, it will just be yet one more reason why that agency no longer works for our company. Can someone from one of the agencies or someone in possession of the wire and cable standards please confirm or deny whether marking is mandatory or not? And under what circumstances? Thank you.
