Metal devices shall be carefully designed to ensure that all edges are rounded where this does not impair the function of the device. 4.4 Protection against corrosion Metal parts shall be protected against corrosion either by their composition or by the use of a suitable surface treatment. 4.5 Marking Each device shall be marked with the following permanent items of marking: − manufacturer’s name or trademark; − type reference; − year and (if possible) month of manufacture; − symbol IEC 6041 7-521 6 (2002-1 0) – Suitable for live working; double triangle (see Annex B); NOTE The exact ratio of the height of the figure to the base of the triangle is 1 ,43. For the purpose of convenience, this ratio can be between the values of 1 ,4 and 1 ,5. − number of the relevant IEC standard immediately adjacent to the symbol (IEC 60832-2). The marking shall be durable, clearly visible and legible to a person with normal or corrected vision without additional magnification.

These testing provisions are primarily intended to be used as type tests for validation of the design input. Where relevant, alternative means (calculation, examination, tests, etc.), are specified within the test subclauses for the purpose of devices having completed the production phase. To show compliance with this part of the standard, the manufacturer shall prove that the type tests referred to in Tables C.1 and C.2 have been successfully carried...
