I think you might refer to IEC 60950 para 2.6.4.2 for the connection of the
PE. Table 3E will probably be used to govern how many you can have on a stud.

Subject: Re: Number of Terminations on a Ground Stud?


Are we talking about electrical circuits or electronic? If we are talking
electrical there may be some concerns about current capacity that would limit
the number.  If we are talking electronic circuits returning all ground
circuits
to a common ground point is a considered good design practice.
