How do I connect an ungrounded LED driver to a GST18i3 3-core installation?

Answer:  GST18i3 3-core grounded connections comply with NEN-EN-IEC61535, the standard for pluggable electrical connections in fixed installations. But they also comply with the NEN-EN-IEC60320 standard for device connections. To connect a Class II ungrounded device to a pluggable electrical installation as per NEN 1010 with NEN-EN-IEC61535 products, a GST18 connector has been developed that fits the GST18i3 connectors in the fixed installation. However, this has no grounding conductor in the cable. This connector therefore only complies with NEN-EN-IEC60320 and not with NEN-EN-IEC61535, and may therefore only be used as a ‘device connector’. It is therefore only supplied as a male connecting cable with a maximum length of 200 cm, which can be attached to a Class II ungrounded or grounded device. No further connections may be made to the Class II device. In terms of its application, this can be compared to a normal appliance plug in the form of a protective earth plug that does not have protective earth contacts, Type C CEE 7-17, which is plugged into a grounded socket. These do not have a grounding conductor either. They comply with the NEN 1020 standard, which is partly based on the NEN-EN-IEC 60320.
