Background: OSM 2012 found it useful to have a similar decision for EN 60065 as the decision 01/8 for EN 60950-1. It has lately been questioned by the chairman of IEC TC108/MT1 that the decision 12/2 may amend EN 60065. Thus, we are proposing a revision of 12/2. Ref. OSM/EE – 2007 Item No.7.1 (enclosed):$ o# z$ G" ~4 @# g& z8 |) M
“OSM decision 01/8 requires markings on the product (e.g. "Use only power supplies listed in the user manual / user instruction." or “For applicable power supplies see user instruction”). Furthermore such sentences shall be in the languages acceptable to the country where the product will be used.+ H' n& a, o* h+ O( q6 M( L
We cannot assume that all people speak or understand English and therefore it is necessary to put nearly all languages of such relevant safety instructions on the product.

OSM/EE-2007 agreed to use instead of such instructions (sentences) on the product, international accepted symbols like these both marks (ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641): F8 W, Y4 I5 q6 o8 `+ F& `
Later it was confirmed by TC108/MT1 that the book only can be used as an alternative. See explanatory notes below. Based on this it is proposed to revise decision 12/2 as amended with red text under the decision below.

When safety of an apparatus relies upon the power supply (adaptor) using a non-special connector for the a.c./d.c. input, the apparatus must have a marking stating the following: "Use only power supplies listed in the user instructions"

"For applicable power supplies see user instructions". This statement shall also be in the user-instructions.- L3 @* A* {/ r h
The user instructions must then have a listing of manufacturers and models of the relevant power supplies. As an alternative to the text on the product, it is acceptable to use both the symbols ISO 7000-0434 and ISO 7000-1641. The book alone is also sufficient (ISO 7000-1641).: ~1 Y$ D! G0 j @6 F
