For CE LVD:
The main earth point should be marked with the circled upside down tree.
Only one such symbol should appear on your product. This is your main earth
bond point.

Any other points you wish to mark as earth should be marked with the
uncircled variety of the upside down tree. Refer EN 60065 for symbol - tree
is not solid but formed with horizontal lines of decreasing length.

Regards,
Chris

Greetings all,
 
I have a request for interpretation of requirement.  Which symbol is correct
for use on a chassis for protective earthing - the upside down tree or the
circle upside down tree or the pitchfork??  (Note:- the ground on the back
of the box is generally marked "GND" and is screw and locking washer
configuration).  What is the correct marking to satisfy a NRTL for a
marking? 
 


Thanks, 
Bill
