Do I need to use a tag with this wording to be compliant?

WARNING: ‘MAIN ELECTRICAL EARTHING CONDUCTOR—DO NOT
DISCONNECT’

I understand no one would fail someone with one of the green "earthing conductor, do not disconnect"

But technically and to truly comply must I meet the wording of the clause

I believe I have asked this before somewhere but can't find the post

Correct that the wording specified in Cl 5.5.1.3 includes the word "main";
and that many commonly-available labels don't have this word - instead they continue to use the older form of wording (as required by 1976 Reg 158).
There are some tags available that have the fully-correct wording.

But I believe any Inspector who picks this up as a "non-compliance" is being excessively pedantic.
Most probably aren't even aware that the specified wording changed (in 3000: 2007);
with the new wording being "mandatory" in NZ from 2010.
