The standard calls for IEC 60417 for the symbols.  Currently there are 3 
symbols to serve different purposes.

1. IEC 60417 - 5017: General earthing
2. IEC 60417 - 5018: Functional earthing
3. IEC 60417 - 5019: Protective earthing

5017 is being proposed to be withdrawn according to IEC discussion result and 
suggest not to be used.  In UK, 5018 shall not be used to indicate a functional 
earthing conductor according to the notes of IEC 60417.  What was happening for 
UK not to use 5018?  Is there any replacement for UK?

Thanks and regards,

Scott
