WEEE Symbol Download: Crossed-Out Bin SVG, PNG and PDF
Preview

The WEEE crossed-out wheeled bin indicates that electrical and electronic equipment must be collected separately from unsorted municipal waste. Download the current version with the horizontal bar in SVG, PNG and PDF format.

When Is the WEEE Symbol Required?

Electrical and electronic equipment within the scope of the WEEE Directive must generally carry the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol when placed on the EU market. The marking must be visible, legible and indelible.

Where the size or function of the product makes marking the equipment itself impractical, the symbol may instead be placed on the packaging, instructions for use and warranty.

Why Does the WEEE Symbol Have a Bar?

The horizontal bar underneath the crossed-out bin identifies electrical and electronic equipment placed on the market after 13 August 2005.

For current products, the symbol with the horizontal bar is therefore the standard version we provide. We do not provide the crossed-out wheeled bin without the bar as a separate download.

Which Products Need the WEEE Symbol?

The requirement applies to electrical and electronic equipment within the scope of the WEEE Directive. This can include household appliances, consumer electronics, lighting equipment, electrical tools, electronic toys and many other products that depend on electric currents or electromagnetic fields to work.

Whether a particular product falls within scope should always be checked against the applicable WEEE requirements and exclusions.

You Might Also Need These Marks

Electrical and electronic products that require the WEEE symbol may also require a CE or UKCA mark, depending on the product and market. If you sell electronics in France, additional French EPR recycling markings, including Triman and Info-tri, may also apply.

Functional Earth Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF
Functional Earth Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF

The functional earth symbol identifies an earthing connection provided for functional purposes rather than electrical safety. Download the symbol in SVG, PNG and PDF and learn when it should be used.

What Is Functional Earth?

A functional earth connection is provided to support the correct operation of electrical or electronic equipment. It may be used for purposes such as electromagnetic compatibility, interference reduction, signal reference or other functional requirements.

Unlike protective earth, functional earth is not primarily intended to protect users against electric shock.

When Is the Functional Earth Symbol Used?

The symbol can be used to identify a terminal or connection intended specifically for functional earthing. Whether such a connection is required depends on the design and intended operation of the equipment.

It should not be used to identify a protective earth terminal where the connection performs a safety function.

Functional Earth vs Protective Earth

Functional earth and protective earth have different purposes. Protective earth is a safety connection designed to provide protection against electric shock, while functional earth supports the operation or performance of the equipment.

Using the correct symbol is therefore important when identifying terminals and connections.

You Might Also Need These Symbols

Depending on the electrical design of your product, you may also need the Protective Earth, Class I Appliance or Class II Double Insulated symbols. View our Electronics Symbols page for other electrical safety and equipment markings.

Use the symbol only for connections intended for functional earthing. Do not use it as a substitute for the protective earth symbol.

Class II Double Insulated Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF
Class II Double Insulated Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF
Preview

The Class II double insulated symbol identifies electrical equipment designed with double or reinforced insulation and without reliance on protective earthing. Download the double square symbol in SVG, PNG and PDF format.

What Is Class II Electrical Equipment?

Class II equipment is designed so that protection against electric shock does not rely solely on basic insulation or a protective earth connection. Additional safety is provided through double or reinforced insulation.

This type of equipment is commonly referred to as double insulated equipment.

When Is the Double Insulated Symbol Used?

The square-within-a-square symbol identifies electrical equipment classified as Class II. It indicates that the equipment uses the required insulation measures for Class II construction and does not rely on a protective earth connection for protection against electric shock.

The symbol should only be used when the product has actually been designed and assessed as Class II equipment.

Does Class II Equipment Need an Earth Connection?

Class II equipment does not rely on protective earthing for protection against electric shock. It should therefore not be confused with Class I equipment, which typically uses a protective earth connection as part of its safety measures.

A functional earth connection may still exist in some equipment for purposes unrelated to protection against electric shock.

You Might Also Need These Symbols

For other electrical constructions, see the Protective Earth and Functional Earth symbols. Depending on the product and market, electrical equipment may also require a CE or UKCA mark and the WEEE crossed-out wheeled bin.

Download

Download the Class II double insulated symbol below in SVG, PNG and PDF format.

Class-2-appliance-symbol.pngClass-2-appliance-symbol.svgClass-2-appliance-symbol.pdf

Use this symbol only for equipment that meets the applicable requirements for Class II construction. Do not use it merely because a product does not have an earth connection.

Indoor Use Only Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF
Indoor Use Only Symbol Download: SVG, PNG and PDF
Preview

The indoor use only symbol indicates that electrical equipment is intended exclusively for use indoors. Download the house symbol in SVG, PNG and PDF and learn when it should be used.

What Does the Indoor Use Only Symbol Mean?

The house symbol indicates that equipment is designed for indoor use and should not be exposed to outdoor environmental conditions such as rain or excessive moisture.

It is commonly found on power supplies, adapters, lighting equipment and other electrical products intended only for indoor environments.

When Is the Indoor Use Only Symbol Used?

The symbol can be used when the safe use of electrical equipment is restricted to indoor locations. Whether the marking is required depends on the product, its design and the applicable product-specific safety requirements and standards.

The symbol should not be used as a substitute for assessing the environmental conditions and ingress protection required for the product.

Does Indoor Use Only Mean the Product Is Not Waterproof?

An indoor-use restriction generally means the equipment has not been designed for unrestricted outdoor exposure. However, the house symbol itself does not specify an IP rating or a particular level of protection against water and dust.

Check the product's IP rating and applicable safety requirements separately where protection against water or solid objects is relevant.

You Might Also Need These Symbols

Depending on your electrical product, you may also need the Class II Double Insulated, Class III, AC or DC and WEEE symbols. Products covered by EU or UK conformity legislation may also require a CE or UKCA mark.

Download

Download the indoor use only symbol below in SVG, PNG and PDF format.

indoor-use-only-symbol.pngindoor-use-only-symbol.svgindoor-use-only-symbol.pdf

Use the symbol only where an indoor-use restriction is appropriate for the equipment. Always check the applicable product standard and environmental requirements before applying the marking.
