The applicable safety standard says that the IO marking must only be on the disconnect device. What another standard says is irrelevant for your product. However, this inconsistency between standards is unacceptable. The matter should be referred to the IEC Standards Management Board so that it can be referred to ACOS. But I don't suppose anyone will do it, so the problem will persist and probably get worse. I will refer it to the UK NC, but it won't get far unless there is support from others. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
