There is no actual requirement for a RCBO to have a FE connection (and

I couldn't see any mention of PE or FE in BS EN 61009-1, other than in
deleted wording.


The 2004 version has a requirement to use label the terminal with the
protective earth icon as per IEC 60417-5019a rather than the functional
earth symbol as previously recommended!

Can't recall where I did see mention of it now.
