In IEC 61010-1:2001 paragraph 6.5.1.2 b) it states “The integral protective conductor connection of an appliance inlet shall be regarded as the PROTECTIVE CONDUCTOR TERMINAL”. Are there any cases where the protective conductor connection can be elsewhere when an IEC appliance inlet with ground is used? Can there be more than one protective conductor terminal?
