How do you rate the electrical integrity of the DIN rail to earth clamp?

I have bought some RS terminals for my lighting junction boxes, and I was
considering relying on the DIN rail to common the earth terminals. Whilst
this appears to be the intention, do you consider it sufficient?

I wouldn't rely on it without finding a suitable product spec
and/or BS/EN reference.


Hmm. Suppose I'd better daisychain some link wires down one side. Wish I'd
saved the money and just used simple 30p yellow terminals

Unless there is a BS/EN reference. Any tips on how I might go about
searching for this - is there a BS for "Earthing Integrity"?
