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 61 236). Information or characteristics not required at the work site, such as year of publication of the standard, shall be provided by other means (bar codes, microchips, etc.) or shall be provided on the packaging. 4.6 Instructions for use Each device shall come with the manufacturer’s instructions for use and care. These instructions shall be prepared in accordance with the general provisions given in IEC 61 477. These instructions shall include at least – maximum mechanical rating; – recommended application(s); – recommendations for cleaning, storage, transportation, periodic testing, refinishing and disposal. 5 Tests 5.1 General This standard provides testing provisions to demonstrate compliance of the product with the requirements of Clause 4. 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 saddles, stick clamps and their accessories having completed the production phase. To show compliance with this standard, the manufacturer shall prove that the type tests have been carried out successfully on at least three devices for each type. However, when the differences between several types of device are limited in number, tests that are unaffected by the differing characteristics of the devices can be carried out on a single type of device, and the results can be used for the other device types. The different type tests, and the order in which these tests are performed are given in Annex B. The tests in Tables B.1 , B.2, B.3 and B.4 of Annex B shall be performed, following the specified order. NOTE In Tables B.1 , B.2, B.3 and B.4 the numbers within parentheses provide reference to the Subclause where the relevant test is explained. For some families of devices, columns are divided in sub-columns equal to the number of mechanical tests to be applied to these devices (these may...
